Long ago, in the area surrounding Güzelcehisar Castle, there lived a young woman renowned for her beauty. She would often visit a pond near the castle to meet the man she loved and spend hours there. However, her family disapproved of their love and forbade her from seeing him.
The woman, unwilling to yield to her family's wishes, planned to elope with her lover. One night, under the bright light of the full moon, she waited at their meeting spot by the pond. But her family discovered her plan and set out to catch her.
When the woman realized her family was approaching, she panicked and jumped into the pond.
From that night on, the pond's waters remained calm, but on full moon nights, those who gazed into the water claimed to see the silhouette of the young woman. Her beauty and love continue to live on in the sorrowful legend that surrounds Güzelcehisar Castle.
