The Turbe of Shams Tabrizi (Turkish: Şems-i Tebrîzî Türbesi) is located in the Karatay district of Konya Province. The turbe was probably built in 13th century. Shams-i-Tabrīzī (Turkish: Şems-i Tebrîzî[1185- 1248]) was a Persian, Muslim, who is credited as the spiritual instructor of Mewlānā Jalāl ad-Dīn Muhammad Rumi and is referenced with great reverence in Rumi’s poetic collection, in particular Diwan-i Shams-i Tabrīzī. Tradition holds that Shams taught Rumi in seclusion in Konya for a period of forty days, before fleeing for Damascus. The tomb of Shams-i Tabrīzī was recently nominated to be a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
