The Kayseri Province, in central Turkey, is an area that has been linked with mythological stories as well as important figures in Turkish history. It is located in the Asian area of Turkey, and surrounded by the Erciyes Mountains, the Hasan Mountain and the Ali Mountain. The Ali mountain is named like that in honor of Ali Baba, who is said to have lived in the area. According to Turkish mythology, a man named Hasan Baba would cross mountains during the month of August every year and bring Ali Baba snow, which would not melt. Whether this happened for real or not, however, is highly debatable.
