About this part of the city
The Historic Silk Road
The historic Silk Road route passing through Ankara, Ayaş, Beypazarı, Güdül, and Nallıhan, lined with caravanserais, bridges, and guild traditions.
Connecting Asia to Europe, the Silk Road traversed the Ankara province through Ayaş, Beypazarı, Güdül, and Nallıhan on its way to Constantinople.
Historic caravanserais (like Suluhan and Çengelhan), stone bridges, and market towns along this corridor facilitated trade in precious Angora mohair, raw silk, and spice caravans for centuries.
