Beypazarı is a district of Ankara Province of Turkey. It has a population of 7900 (by the year 2005).

The town is famous for its carrot, silver working (Telkari), naturally bubbling spring water, 80-ply baklava and numerous restored Turkish houses. It is increasingly becoming more touristically attractive. With its rich architectural heritage including Eti, Hittite, Roman, Seljuck and Ottoman civilizations, Beypazarı is a member of the Norwich-based European Association of Historic Towns and Regions (EAHTR) [1].
