Elbistan

The Ceyhan River defines the setting of Elbistan — its waters cross the broad Elbistan Plain, sustaining agriculture and giving this inland town an open, level character. Set in the northern part of Kahramanmaraş Province, Elbistan is a longstanding regional centre for the surrounding rural districts. It served as an early capital of the Dulkadir beylik, a Turkmen principality that held influence in Anatolia between the Mamluk and Ottoman realms. Local life remains closely tied to the plain’s farming traditions and markets. Continue through nearby webcams to explore different parts of Elbistan and Kahramanmaraş.
