[de] Tomarza

Tomarza ist eine Stadtgemeinde (Belediye) im gleichnamigen Ilçe (Landkreis) der Provinz Kayseri in der türkischen Region Zentralanatolien und gleichzeitig ein Stadtbezirk der 1988 gebildeten Büyükşehir belediyesi Kayseri (Großstadtgemeinde/Metropolprovinz). Seit der Gebietsreform 2013 ist die Gemeinde flächen- und einwohnermäßig identisch mit dem Landkreis. Auf einem älteren Stadtsiegel ist noch die Jahreszahl 1953 zu sehen, vielleicht ein Hinweis auf die Verleihung des Status einer Stadtgemeinde (Belediye).
