This Obruk is located 74 km from Konya, off the Silk roadroad. Upon arriving at the town of Kizören, there will be a turn off to the left towards the village of Obruk, which lies 4 km from the main road. The Obruk han sits on a cliff above a small, 30m deep crater lake, with vivid turquoise blue water.

This han was an important stop on the Silk route, and is located between the Zazadin Han (1236) and the Aksaray Sultan Han (1229). The han lies parallel to the road, with the door facing southwest towards the route. Kuban believes that this was the only han on this road during the first half of the 13th century, and was one of the largest of the early period hans.The han takes its name from the lake behind it.
The han shows a typical plan for the era: covered section to the rear of an open courtyard. This is a large han, with a particularly vast courtyard leading to the rear section (19 x 29m).

The facade of the han is severe, with no decoration except for the three window openings of the mosque. There is no elaborate crown portal, nor an inscription plaque over the door. This plain flat front and the "turrets" over the door are quite unusual and give this han its own distinctive aesthetic personality.

The entry has two storeys. The mosque lies to the right of the entry passageway to the courtyard on the upper storey, accessible by a set of stone steps. The mosque comprises a horizontal series of 4 cells and has a mihrab.

The courtyard has two different sets of 5 side aisles. The aisles to the southeast were covered cell-like rooms with windows and were probably used for the storage of goods, while those to the northeast, with wider openings, were used for the stabling of animals (camels).

The covered section has a middle aisle some 5.5 m wide, with a central dome at the crossing of the sixth arcade. There are 8 covered cells on each side, 9 m deep and 3-4 meters wide, with the vaulting running perpendicular to the the side walls.
