Amasya 1993 116.jpg

One of some scans I made in 2018 of older slides, mainly from the '90's.

The facade of the Halifet Gazi Türbesi.

This is one of the oldest Seljuk mausolea in Amasya. It was built in 1226, adjacent to a medrese from 1209. The madrasa disappeared, the tomb is still standing. It was restored in the 1970s, and is now one of Amasya’s finest Seljuk monuments.
