Bozkır, Administrative district in Konya Province, Turkey
Bozkır is an administrative district in Konya Province located on a high plateau in Central Anatolia. The landscape consists mainly of open grasslands and farmland where agriculture and pastoral activities shape the terrain.
The area held strategic importance during the Seljuk period as an inhabited region in Anatolia. It developed into a settled territory and eventually became an administrative district within the modern provincial system.
The people here depend on agriculture and livestock farming across the highlands, with daily life shaped by seasonal work in the fields and pastures. Traditional practices remain central to how communities use the surrounding land.
The district connects to Konya city through the local road network, making it accessible by car or bus. The plateau climate means cool temperatures at higher elevations, especially in winter months, so dress accordingly for your visit.
The district is divided into more than 50 distinct neighborhoods, each with its own local role in administration. This division reveals how settlements are scattered across the highland terrain.
