Parsana Mahallesi

Few neighbourhoods on the Konya Plain have a history as closely tied to Konya’s modern urban growth as Parsana Mahallesi. This residential quarter lies in Selçuklu, the metropolitan district north of the historic centre, where broad avenues and apartment blocks reflect the expansion of one of Turkey’s major inland cities. Konya occupies a wide, dry Central Anatolian plain shaped by agriculture and long-distance routes across the plateau. Its older identity rests on the Seljuk era: the city was capital of the Sultanate of Rum, while the Mevlana Museum contains the mausoleum of the Sufi poet Jalal al-Din Rumi.
