== History == In 2008 the district Sarıçam was created from part of the district Yüreğir. The urban part of the new district, 28 neighbourhoods, was established as a municipality. At the 2013 Turkish local government reorganisation, the rural part of the district was integrated into the municipality, the villages becoming neighbourhoods.
