Ibrahim Hakki Shrine
The shrine complex in Tillo preserves the spiritual and scientific legacy of Ismail Fakirullah and his student, Erzurumlu Ibrahim Hakki. Thanks to the light mechanism designed by Ibrahim Hakki, the solar phenomenon that occurs on the equinoxes gives the site special significance not only for religious tourism but also for astronomy and the history of science. The site is associated with a cultural heritage asset included on the UNESCO World Heritage Tentative List.
