Istanbul's Green Spaces and Miniatures

This collection centers on the Golden Horn's recreational areas, anchored by Miniatürk, one of the world's largest miniature parks featuring 1/25 scale models of Anatolian and Ottoman landmarks. The surrounding neighborhood of Halıcıoğlu and Sütlüce offers several local green spaces such as Kıbrıs Barış Ormanı Parkı and 52. Alay Parkı. These spots provide basic amenities, playgrounds, and views of the Golden Horn, serving as quiet retreats from the dense urban fabric of Beyoğlu.
