Cinci Han Caravanserai Safranbolu




Safranbolu Cinci Han is one of the big, little mixed caravansarays established on Historical Silk Road laying from China to Anatolia Land throughout the centuries.
Cinci Han was built by Karabaşzade Hüseyin Efendi in 1645. The architect of the Han is unknown, but it is supposed that it was built by Mimar Kasım Ağa, one of the main architects in that period.
