The Seljuks established a successful foundation for the Turkification of Anatolia with the monumental works they built in Anatolia. Especially, these works left in the fields of architecture, culture and art formed the basis of Anatolia in terms of Turkish history. Stone materials and geometric motifs were used in many buildings such as madrasah, mosque, tomb, caravanserai built by the Seljuks. Each end of the Seljuk Star, which consists of two intertwined squares with eight corners, symbolizes a virtue. These are Compassion, Affection, Patience, Truthfulness, Keeping Secrets, Loyalty, Generosity and Being Thankful to the God. In the name of respect for history, the monument, which will form a symbolic and imaginary meaning in accordance with today's conditions, will be the focal point of the district.
