Kızılören Han, Medieval caravanserai in Konya Province, Turkey

The Kızılören Han features yellow tufa stone walls, octagonal corner towers, and a series of vaulted bays surrounding an open courtyard.

Built around 1205-1206 during Sultan Gıyaseddin Keyhüsrev I's reign, this structure stands as one of the earliest hans constructed along the Konya-Beyşehir trade route.

The building design incorporates a second-floor mosque above the entrance portal, demonstrating the integration of religious practices into merchant travel infrastructure.

Following renovations in 2008, the caravanserai now operates as a restaurant and equestrian club, offering traditional Konya dishes to visitors.

This caravanserai belongs to a network of four hans positioned along the same route, including Altinapa Han, Kuruçeşme Han, and Yunuslar Han.
