Its story
The han was built in the Seljuk period by Mahperi Hatun, wife of Sultan Alâeddin Keykubad I; its exact date is unknown. The single-story rectangular building is divided into three naves by two rows of arches. The General Directorate of Foundations restored it in 2007 and opened it to visitors. Its location on the historic road between Amasya and Tokat recalls the old caravan route.
