July 10- More Kervansarays...ancient ones and modern ones














More beautiful rolling hills and grain fields but constant head wind. Very tiring. Since we were following one of the main routes of the silk road we came past three more Kervansarays. One called Tepesidelikhan had been converted into a restaurant. We stopped there to have a look. The owner spoke good German and he allowed us to walk around in the gorgeously restored building and take photos. He also gave us a cup of coffee.
We were able to spend a few hours in the empty yurt next to the Kervansaray until the sun was less intense. Being at 1300m elevation, the air remained very pleasant even at midday.
THANK YOU CUMA FOR THE NICE PLACE TO SIT!
Here is the website of this restaurant if you are interested.

Below is another Kervansaray. This one was closed but was just newly renovated.
















In the evening we rode almost all the way to Acigöl where we finally stopped at a gas station to make some dinner. The kind attendant invited us to sleep in the unfinished back room of the gas station.
THANK YOU FOR THE GOOD SLEEPING SPOT.
