Situated 5 km east of Avanos on the
Kayseri-Aksaray road, Sarı Han is on the
banks of the Damsa brook. It faces west, and consists of an indoor
area with 5 naves and a courtyard. Sarı Han is considered to have
been built in 1238. It had a Turkish bath and a mesjid over the gatehouse
and its external area (excluding the towers and portal) is 2,000 m².
Repairs are now taking place, but because its future function has
not yet been determined there is no way of knowing on what basis the
repairs are being done. The restoration being done is technically
unsuccessfull.
