Abstract

It will not be wrong to state that there are insufficient studies on Ottoman travelogues. We have neither an orderly catalogue, nor a complete list of these travelogues. This problem will remain until we have complete catalogues of the collections in our libraries. This article constitutes an attempt to fill a part of this gap on the basis of the available literature and information by giving an overview of the Ottoman travelogues of the sixteenth century.
