Lake Akşehir (Turkish: Akşehir Gölü) is a tectonic freshwater endorheic lake in Afyonkarahisar and Konya provinces, in the southwestern part of Turkey. It carries the same name as the town of Akşehir south of the lake.
The lake is fed by the Eber Channel, five larger streams from the Sultan Mountains, and many smaller streams. The lake's salinity increases towards the middle and northern parts due to underground spring waters. The lake is used for irrigation.
Lake Eber (Turkish: Eber Gölü) is a freshwater lake in Afyon Province, Turkey. The lake used to be connected with nearby Lake Akşehir and was named Tessarakonta Martyron, the Forty Martyr's lake, in premodern times.
