Gülhane park
Its beautiful right? Gülhane park in Istanbul Turkey is kind of like an oasis in the middle of the city, with its location beeing right smack in the city center. And the park is not just big, its huge. But do you want to know my favorite part about this specific park? You can actually use it. Even though theres people everywhere thats working in park, gardening and keeping it clean, its okey to use park.
Its okey if you want to bring a picnic blanket and make it a family day. Its okey to lay on the grass and read a good book. You can actually use the park, its not just there to be pretty for the tourists. We’ve all been in that kind of “dont walk on the gras” parks, they are usually pretty, but shouldnt they me called museums, not parks? Dont get me wrong, I get the point with the museumparks, I just like places like Gülhane park so much more where there’s actual interaction.
What do you prefer?
The 18 meters Colomn of the Goth is found the park, its the oldest known monument of Istanbul. And if you like tulips, you should really visit the park in march and april during their festivale, where they use millions of tulip flowers as artwork.

Yes Lauren, there are many places in Istanbul that is well worth visiting. We were only in town for a weekend so I am sure that there are lots of places that we missed out on 😊

Nej jag missade den dumt nog. Kollade upp den på kartan och den låg ju i det området jag strövade runt i.

Gülhane park is absolutely beautiful. I remember being so surprise on our first visit to Europe to see so many parks where you couldn’t sit on the grass. This is a wonderful place for families.

Du kasnke får en ny chans någon dag 😊
Kan du tänka dig at åka tillbaka eller finns det andra ställen i Turkiet du hellre åker till?
//Ann
Anngelic
It sure is Joanne 😊 And I totally agree with you, there should be more parks you can actually use

The architecture is something else!

Istanbul är fortfarande nr 1 när det gäller Turkiet. Kan tänka mig att åka tillbaka även om det dalat lite på “vill besöka-listan” eftersom jag sett dom sevärdheter jag allra helst velat se. Men finns fortfarande en hel del kvar jag vill se som Topkapi palatset, Arkeologiska museumet m.m.
Anngelic
Åh jag vet inte om jag har någon no1 när det kommer till Turkiet, det finns fortfarande så många ställen jag inte sett, som jag gärna vill besöka 😊
Anngelic
It sure is Mona, it was so beautiful 😊

How did I miss this beautiful park when we were in Istanbul? We only stopped there as a cruise port. I can’t wait to go back and fully explore the city.
Anngelic
Det var verkligen vackert 😊
Har du varit i Istanbul?

Anngelic
Ohyes, om ni hamnar i Istanbul så rekommenderar jag att ni besöker parken, perfekt ställe för en picnic 😊
//Ann

The park looks lovely! I went to Istanbul years ago but never made it here. I agree that it’s so much nicer to find a park you can enjoy & relax in.
Anngelic
It sure was a great place to walk around and just enjoy the enviroment 😊
