Start your day at the Sivas Castle, which dates back to the 12th century. You can admire a beautiful view of the city from the top of the castle walls while learning about the history of the region. Note that some parts of the castle may be closed due to restoration.
The Gökmedrese is an important historical monument in Sivas and an example of medieval Seljuk architecture. The architecture of this structure impresses with its detailed paintings and decorations from the Islamic world.
Cifte Minareli Medrese, also known as the Double Minaret Madrasah, is one of the most famous places to visit in Sivas. This old madrasah was built in the 13th century and boasts amazing decorative carvings with two towering minarets. It’s a place where you can feel the mystical ambiance of the ancient times.
This historical covered bazaar was once the place that Sivas lived its time of prosperity. Nowadays, it is an authentic place where you can find handmade souvenirs while eating local biscuits of Sivas. Shopping lovers should definitely put it in their travel plans.
If you have more time, you can visit The Şifaiye Madrasah or Prefabricated houses, which can give you an entirely different perspective of Sivas's architectural beauty. If you have less time, you can skip The Bedesten and use that time to explore other places more comfortably.
