Tomb of Gül Baba Founder of Galatasaray - Budapest
Today we will visit Gül Baba Tomb with you. The Tomb of Gül Baba is located in Budapest, Hungary. Gül Baba is the only mausoleum in the west. There are no other shrines further west.
Gül Baba went to many wars with Suleiman the Magnificent and Fatih Sultan Mehmet. It is thought that he took a very active role in the Ottoman wars. Of course, this may vary according to some sources.
According to other accounts, Sultan Beyazid was riding his horse in today's Beyoğlu region on a foggy winter day. She smelled a beautiful rose scent through the mist. When the Sultan asked about the source of the smells, they reached Gül Baba's house. According to the rumor, Gül Baba gifted Sultan Beyazid with one yellow and one red rose. Sultan asked what do you want from me. Gul Baba said I want the most precious thing from you. And he demanded the establishment of a school from the Sultan. That school is today Galatasaray High School. The origin of yellow and red colors is based here.
Evliya Çelebi states in his Travelogues that Gül Baba came to Budapest from Merzifon during the reign of the Ottoman Sultan Suleiman the Magnificent.
It is seen that he is a very respected person by the Hungarians.
After visiting the tomb, we continue to tour Budapest as a tour guide.
