view map

This is a statue for Demirel, with in the background the Kutlubey (Ulu) Camii.

Apart from being Turkey’s Prime Minister for 10 years and 5 months (7 times between 1965 and 1993), Süleyman Demirel also became the Republic’s ninth president (from 1993 to 2000). He was born in Islamköy, a large village in the Atabey district, 20 km northeast of Isparta.

Your guess is right, it is the statue of Süleyman Demirel. Isparta is the birth place of Süleyman Demirel. He used to wear this type of hat. By the time, the hat became his symbol.
