Tavşanlı

Tavşanlı lies northwest of Kütahya, where the inland country opens toward the Marmara and Aegean regions. A mosque associated with the Seljuk period recalls the town's older Turkish history. In a nearby valley stands Dikilitaş, a great volcanic rock bearing geometric decoration from the Phrygian past. The surrounding highlands include forests of black pine, rising above the cultivated basin around the settlement.
