I recently visited the captivating Karatay Lavender Garden and was immediately struck by its beauty. Walking through the fields of blooming lavender, the soothing scent embraced me, creating an atmosphere of serenity. The vibrant purple hues stretched endlessly, as bees danced among the flowers, collecting nectar. It was a truly enchanting experience that offered both tranquility and insight into the cultivation and uses of lavender. The Karatay Lavender Garden is a place where nature’s beauty and human care intertwine to create a memorable visit.
The central Karatay District Municipality of Konya established the Karatay Lavender Garden, which welcomed visitors.
In order to ensure that residents have a good time, to increase alternative agricultural products, and to evaluate the lands more efficiently, Karatay Municipality established the garden in the Karaaslan Üzümcü Neighbourhood in 2019. As of the start of the new season, it has begun to welcome visitors. This year, there is also interest in the lavender garden, which attracted tens of thousands of visitors the previous year and provided amazing experiences.
The most important destination for locals from all walks of life, domestic and international tourists, couples looking to take engagement or wedding photos, amateur and professional photographers, and those who are proposing marriage.

The Karatay Buffet, viewing terraces, strolling trails, and garden are just a few of the enjoyable locations in the Karatay Municipality. Additionally, locals get the chance to sample a variety of lavender-based goods, including ice cream and soda. In a post on his social media account, Karatay Mayor Hasan Klca thanked everyone who visited the lavender garden and expressed interest from the very beginning, adding:
“While providing our Karatay with the facilities it requires, infrastructure investments, numerous projects, services, and investments from education to sport, from culture to social studies, we are also realising the attraction areas that will be the centre of attraction in our region. The garden has developed into one of these tourist destinations.”
