Influenced by this, significant progress has been made in inventory-research documentation and conservation-development efforts for the vernacular architectural values in the Safranbolu city center that require protection. In parallel, substantial identification and registration work has been carried out in the villages surrounding Safranbolu, especially Yörükköyü, Yazıköyü, and Bulakköyü in Karabük.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eHowever, it is observed that the vernacular architectural heritage in the remaining villages, consisting of unique examples of folk building art such as traditional timber-framed houses, mills, schools, inns, Turkish baths, mosques, laundries, fountains, cemeteries, bridges, etc., is undergoing a process of deterioration and loss. Yet, it is a fact that these structures possess similar and common unique values to those in Safranbolu's historical city center. The data we obtained from our research support the fact that there are works with the same unique values in all rural settlements surrounding the region.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe book presents the general settlement and values requiring protection in 67 villages in and around Safranbolu, including local structural systems and materials, interior features, and examples of selected houses, barns, schools, mills, religious buildings, bridges, Turkish baths, fountains, archaeological values, and cemeteries from these villages, illustrated with drawings and photographs. Additionally, some project trials outlining visions for the sustainability of ecological values in the villages are also presented.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThis book aims to both update the findings of the local architectural values in Safranbolu villages, which have been part of my personal archive for 30 years, and to collectively publish them. Thus, the goal is to document the traditional architectural heritage that is rapidly being lost in the villages and to raise awareness for the protection and sustainability of these works...”\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe book consists of the following chapters:\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e1.
