Yedi Uyuyanlar, Mağara Ashabı ya da diğer adıyla Eshab-ı Kehf, Kuran'da da zikredilen, kıssasıyla insanlara şaşkınlık veren bir mucizenin yaşandığı yer. Bu nedenle yerli yabancı çok sayıda turistin uğrak noktası. Tarsus gezisine dahil etmenizi öneriyorum. Mağaraya geliş yolunda, birkaç km ötesinde Taşkuyu Mağarası da var (giriş ücretsiz), sarkıt ve dikitleriyle doğal oluşumlu ve gerçekten bir yeraltı mağarasına göre on numara aydınlatılmış ve güvenlik önlemleri alınmış bu mağarayı da Kehf ziyaretine ekleyebilirsiniz. İki yer için de giriş ücreti, müze kart vb talep edilmiyor, ha bu arada, madem buraya kadar geldiniz, az aşağılarda inanılmaz Tarsus Şelalesi'nde biraz soluklanıp Tarsus'un göbeğinde (yani Kehf mağarasına 10 dk uzaklıktaki) Danyal Peygamber'in makamına da uğramadan geçmeyin. Oranın hemen arkası tarihi Ulu Camii ve yapılarla dolu. İyi gezmeler :) Dip not: Tarsus gezisine sabah erken başlayın, bir güne sığdıramıyorsunuz :)

İçeride garip bir hissiyat hâkim. Manevi atmosferinden kaynaklı olsa gerek. Kaygan taşlar ve taşlardan sızan kokulu bir su var. Mağara çok büyük değil ama gidilemeyen dar oluklar var. Gizemli bir yer...

08.07.2023 Ziyaret ettim müslümanların kutsal kitabında ayetlerde geçen bu mübarek yere TARSUS BELEDİYESİNİN verdiği önem sıfır ayıptır ya birçok yabancı yerli turist ziyaret ediyor birçok Müslüman insan gelip dua ediyor her taraf Tarsus belediyesine yakışır şekilde pislik çöplük içinde hele en baş girişte büyük HOŞGELDİNİZ lehvası Tarsus'ta belediye başkanının oraya hiç uğramadığı nın kanıtı. Koltuklarınız dan kalkında yoluna çeşmesine gelen insanların dinlediği gözleriyle gördüğü yerleri bir sizde görün. Yazık yazık Tarsus'ta özel sektör zenginlerin iş merkezlerinin fabrikatörlerin işhanlarının önünü peyzaj edip çicek gül dikip puan alacağınıza oyuyla koltuk sahibi olduğunuz halkın ziyaret ettiği bu mübarek yeri güzelleştirin .

Kuranı kerimde keyf süresi 17 ve 18.Ayetlerde 17. (Orada olsaydın) güneş doğduğunda onun; mağaralarının sağ tarafına kaydığını, batarken de onlara dokunmadan sol tarafa gittiğini görürdün. Kendileri ise mağaranın geniş bir yerinde idiler. Bu, Allah'ın mucizelerindendir. Allah, kime hidayet ederse işte o, doğru yolu bulandır. Kimi de şaşırtırsa, artık ona doğru yolu gösterecek bir dost bulamazsın. 18. Uykuda oldukları hâlde, sen onları uyanık sanırsın. Biz onları sağa sola çeviriyorduk. Köpekleri de mağaranın girişinde iki kolunu uzatmış (yatmakta idi.) Onları görseydin, mutlaka onlardan yüz çevirip kaçardın ve gördüklerin yüzünden için korku ile dolardı. Bu ayetlere istinaden en doğru mağara burası nedeni mağaranın tepesinde bir delik var ve oradan içeri güneş sağ ve sol taraflarına kayarak ashabı kehfi rahatsız etmeden 309 yıl uyumuşlar Bakım güzel heryer tertemiz Mağaranın içerisinde gelen ziyaretcilere aldiris etmeden bir de kendini kıtmır zanneden bir köpek uyuyor.

Tarihi ve dini anlamı büyük bu alanın bu kadar bakımsız olması ve mağara içerisinde kötü koku bulunması hiç yakışmamış. Mağara içerisinde çöp mevcut rahatsız edici. Ne gezdiğinizi anlayamıyorsunuz. Giriş ve otopark ücretsiz ulaşım kolay.
