The Ottoman-era tomb was built between 1543 and 1548 in Budapest. Gül Baba -- which means Father of Roses -- was an Ottoman Bektashi dervish poet and a companion of Sultan Suleyman the Magnificent. The tomb was restored by a Turkish-Hungarian partnership after a protocol was signed in 2014. Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan on Tuesday inaugurated the restored tomb of Gül Baba in the Hungarian capital Budapest.
