Editor's Note
It has fountains on two faces, one facing the street and the other in the garden courtyard. The wall on which the fountain stands has undergone repair. The building is now known as Selvili Köşk and is used as a guesthouse. Its inscription reads: By the abundant grace of God this fountain became a source of light; the longing for the wine of Kawthar sprang forth in this place. Its building was for God's sake, its water likewise for God's sake; I gave the date: "the cupbearer poured them the cup of resurrection" (1197 AH / 1782 AD). Source: A.
