Mustafapaşa, formerly known as Sinasos (Greek: Σινασός), is a village in the Ürgüp District of Nevşehir Province, Turkey.[1] Its population is 1,295 (2022).[2] Before the 2013 reorganisation, it was a town (belde).[3] It lies to the west of Gomeda valley and is 5 kilometres (3.1 mi) away from Ürgüp and 27 kilometres (17 mi) away from Nevşehir town.
The town is named after Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, the military leader and first president of Turkey.
Like most of Cappadocia, Mustafapaşa used to depend for a living on agriculture., especially grape-growing. However, it lies within the region of Cappadocia, and increasingly depends on tourism for its living with new hotels opening all the time.[4]
The town centre is home to a vocational high school party housed in a 19th-century medrese.[4]
