Discover the Seljuk Castle, an ancient brick and clay fortress that dates back over 1000 years. Walk along its walls, explore its old rooms, and enjoy the breathtaking view of the city from the top.
Escape the hustle and bustle of the city and relax in the lush greenery of Shamsabad Park. Enjoy a picnic, take a nap under the trees, or stroll along its winding paths and reflect on your day.
