Walk of Health

The shortest – and most interesting and best maintained – trail encompasses 7 km of an elaborate cemented path of about 2 meters width. Both sides are secured with a metallic lattice fence and lit at night with street lanterns. The octagonal golden Seljuk star (an eight point star made of two squares) motive appears on fence and lamps and on the domed pavilions that offer shade in summer.

Along the way life size golden statues of common desert animals have been lovingly placed, some constellations reminiscent of fables. The trail can be interrupted after about eight kilometers, where there is bus station and a kiosk with tea and refreshments.
