Selcuklu Evi Hotel
Cappadocia
|
Since the
beginning of its history, Turkey has been the home of many
civilizations including the Seljuks, a tribe from Asia.
The Seljuk empire developed a distinctive culture, with
especially beautiful architecture and design. Their
architecture survived the decline, warfare and instability
and continued to flourish long after their sultanate was
dissolved
Selcuklu Evi is a fine example of Seljuk architecture. This
antique house has been lovingly restored by hand. The local
craftsmen of Ürgüp spent two years to complete this
restoration.
Each block was quarried from the local area and then
manually sculptured and leveled before becoming part of
Selcuklu Evi
As much of the original house has been preserved although
many years of decay and erosion had left limited resources.
Each motif and impression on the stones has a story and that
is why this restoration is so unique
Situated in a small lane surrounded by local homes and
gardens this area has panoramic views of rock hewn caves and
the old village of Ürgüp |
