Isparta is a city in western Turkey and the provincial capital of the Isparta Province. The city’s population is 222,556 (as of 2010) and elevation from sea level is 1035 m. The main economic activities of Isparta are rosewater production and handmade carpet making. Tourism, both local and increasingly international due to “biblical tourism”, is also becoming an important source of revenues for the city.
Some historical buildings and houses remain from the nineteenth century, but these are rare compared to the number of modern constructions. There are several important mosques in Isparta, including the pre-Ottoman Hizir Bey mosque (circa 1325), the Kutlubey or Ulu (Great) mosque (1429, with major restorations in the nineteenth century) and Haci Abdi mosque (1569).
