A view in the recently arranged ‘Pirler Parkı’ (Park of the Governors), looking up to the ‘Yukarı Pirler Türbesi’ (= Upper Tomb of the Governors). This park has two other historical buildings within its borders: the Aşağı Pirler Türbesi (= Lower Tomb of the Governors) and the Çilehane Camii. All three were erected in the early 15th century.
