Burdur, Provincial capital in southwestern Turkey.

Located near Lake Burdur, the city extends across valleys and hills, featuring a Mediterranean climate with dry summers and wet winters.

The settlement traces back to 6500 BCE, evolving through Byzantine times when it was called Polydorion before coming under Turkish control.

The Burdur Archaeological Museum contains artifacts from nearby Hacılar site, showing nine distinct stages of habitation from Neolithic times.

The city connects to major routes through railways to Afyonkarahisar and Eskişehir, while maintaining direct highway access to Antalya.

Burdur maintains extensive marble quarries that produce the internationally recognized Burdur Beige stone used in construction projects worldwide.
