Additionally, Salda was also included in the list of the world's top 200 Geosites.
UNESCO Turkey Natural Sciences Specialization Committee Chairman Prof. Dr. Nizamettin Kazancı made the following statements regarding this important development: "Cultural and natural assets whose scientific importance has been identified by international organizations such as UNESCO, IUCN, IUGS are not only the superior values of the countries they are located in but of the entire world."

Salda Lake Science Center: Gained Importance with Its New Mission
With this great appreciation and certification, Salda Lake has become much more important for both Burdur, our university, and our country. The "Salda Lake Science Center," established by the General Directorate of Natural Assets Protection of the Ministry of Environment and Urbanization and transferred to our university, has gained a much more significant mission following this development. Our university has undertaken the task of researching, protecting, and promoting Salda Lake worldwide with this center. It is thought that this situation will provide significant contributions to our country's science, education, and tourism fields.
