Geography
Arifiye is situated just at the east of Lake Sapanca. It is almost merged to Adapazarı the center of the province and it is a part of Greater Sakarya. (see Metropolitan centers in Turkey). Arifiye is on Turkish Motorway O-4 and state highway D.100 both of which connect Istanbul to Ankara. It is also an important railway junction.
History
Arifiye is a part of ancient region of Bithynia. It later on fell to Roman Empire and Byzantine Empire. Several times it was plundered by the Sassanid Persians, Umayyad Arabs and Russians in the Middle Ages. After a brief occupation by the Seljuk Turks it was returned to Byzantines during the First Crusade. In 1326 Ottoman Turks annexed Arifiye. Although an important stop on Silk Road in the Middle Ages because of frequent floods of the nearby Lake Sapanca it was not a populous settlement. During Turkish Republic its population increased and by 1956 it was declared a seat of township. In 2008 the district Arifiye was created from part of the former central district of Adapazarı/Sakarya Province, along with the districts Adapazarı, Erenler and Serdivan.[4][5][6]
