Kanuni Caravanserai is a historical building located in Çeşme district of İzmir. The caravanserai, which sets an example for Ottoman period architecture, was built in 1528 by Suleiman the Magnificent. Located on the Silk Road route, the building served as an important trade center between İzmir and Çeşme.
The caravanserai has two floors and a rectangular plan. While there are barns, warehouses and shops on the lower floor, there are rooms used for accommodation on the upper floor. Caravanserai, located in a large courtyard, has typical Ottoman architecture and attracts attention with its stonework.
Today, Kanuni Caravanserai is open to tourists in its restored state. It is an important building that reflects the historical texture of Çeşme and is a popular visiting point among İzmir's historical sites.
