The Caravanserai of Eğirdir, located in the district of Eğirdir in Turkey's Isparta Province, on the İzmir–Konya route, 3 km south of the town center, on the lake shore, is a caravanserai. It was built in 1237 by Sultan II. Gıyâseddin Kaykhusraw. Because its inscription gives the Hijri year 635 (1237/38), it is thought that construction began during the reign of Seljuk Sultan I. Alaeddin Kayqubad, but was completed by his son, II. Gıyâseddin Kaykhusraw, due to his sudden death. Together with some other caravanserais in the country, it has been nominated for UNESCO World Heritage List under the name Seljuk Caravanserais Anatolia–East Anatolia Route.
