Çelebili

Çelebili is a neighbourhood in the municipality and district of Toroslar, Mersin Province, Turkey.[1] Its population is 304 (2022).[2] It is situated in the lower slopes of the Taurus Mountains and close to an artificial lake. Its distance to Mersin city center is 12 kilometres (7.5 mi). The village is a relatively recent settlement. Before being declared a village in 1955, it was a hamlet near Musalı, and the name of the settlement probably refers to a letter writer of the settlement who was called Çelebi, an Ottoman-era title meaning "gentleman."[3]
