Beypazari homes in the local language, "let-up cabinet," the so-called horizontal and vertical service between departments and floors and cabinets that are returned. Roofs are usually made of squat brick home. Recently, the applicability of remedial and cheapness of easy-to-hand passing in mind there are roofs covered with sheet metal material. Garden walls of houses with gardens that street out to be quite high against the measure is emphasized.

Almost adjacent to the neighboring houses have gardens and a sense of trust between the people think.
