This well preserved Caravanserai is 15km from Aksaray, on the Aksaray-Nevsehir road. Its construction began in 1231 during the reign of Alaaddin Keykubad, and was finished during his son, Keyhusrev's reign. The small mosque rests on four pillars directly opposite the portal. Unlike in the other caravanserais, the closed area is not opposite the portal, but to the left.
