Lake Seyfe Bird Sanctuary Located in the Mucur district, Lake Seyfe is a stunning natural wonder that sits in a tectonic pit just 30km from Kirsehir and 220km from Ankara. The lake is home to several islands where various species of birds come to incubate their eggs. With its natural flora, turquoise waters, and the incredible sight of flocks of birds on its islands, the lake has great potential for tourism, provided that the necessary infrastructure is put in place. A total of 186 bird species have been observed in the area, making it a haven for birdwatchers. Flamingos and other bird species offer captivating views, but hunting is strictly prohibited in the area. Lake Seyfe has been designated a first-degree natural site and is protected under the international Ramsar Agreement of 1994, which recognizes water sites of global significance. The area covers 10,700 hectares, including both permanent and temporary lake areas, and the preservation of its natural structure and ecological character is of paramount importance.
