In addition to their beauty, tulips actually offer employment to hundreds of workers from various provinces across the country. Workers from the east come to Çumra to harvest tulips every spring.
This tulip story began in the Central Anatolian province of Konya 15 years ago after a businessman brought tulips of every color to the city for mass cultivation. After being grown in the district of Çumra, the Konya tulips dazzle visitors to many parks and gardens throughout Turkey as well as abroad."
