İBB Taksim Gezi Parkı

4.2 ·

Pause at Gezi Parkı, the shady green heart of central Taksim. Sit on a bench under the trees, take tea nearby, and see the park that gained a place in modern Turkish history.

📖

Full description

Gezi Parkı is one of the few green spaces in the Taksim area, a tree-filled park with plenty of benches in sun and shade, and it became internationally known as the site of the large protests of 2013. Visitors describe it as calmer than the always busy square next to it, pleasant in the morning or evening, with tea available at a spot near the police station.

It is open around the clock, and 30 minutes is enough for a short walk and a rest between sights.

Reviews

A beautiful parek full of green trees and benches to rest. Take a stroll there, it's very pleasant and much less crowded than the always busy Taksim square!
