After 6-7 km from here, the tombs of Abdullah Mihalgazi and Hatip Dede are reached. The mosque and tomb in Hatipdede are very neglected, it is very difficult to climb to the tomb of the blessed one, the path is lost, there is not even a ladder to climb up to his tomb. There is the Hatip Dede mosque dated 1655, but it needs to be restored to severe care. The tomb of Abdullah Mihalgazi is in the Harmanköy cemetery, well-maintained and beautiful.
