Gülşehir is a town in Turkey, in the Central Anatolian Region.

The old name of Gülşehir, situated on the southem bank of the Red River, 20 km from Nevşehir, is Arapsun and in ancient times it was called “Zoropassos”. The ottoman Grand Vezier Karavezir Mehmet Seyyid Pasha did the same thing in Gülşehir as Damat İbrahim Pasha did in Nevşehir and a külliye was built in the town which had only 30 houses. The complex consisted of a mosque, a madrassa and a fountain.
