The 800-year-old Çınçınlı Sultan Inn in Saraykent, Yozgat, Türkiye, is drawing attention in its severely damaged state. Built in 1240–1241 on the historic Silk Road, the inn has largely collapsed, with its walls stripped and its interior filled with rubble.
Drone footage shows most of the structure destroyed, and local residents say stones were removed in past decades before the site gained protected status. Visitors now express concern that the historic inn has been left neglected and call for restoration efforts to preserve it for future generations.
