Gülhane Park is one of Istanbul's oldest and most beautiful parks, located in the historic Sultanahmet district. It was originally part of the outer garden of Topkapi Palace and served as a royal recreational area. The park features expansive lawns, tree-lined pathways, and stunning views of the Bosphorus. Visitors can enjoy a tranquil escape from the bustling city while exploring its rich history, which includes the Column of the Goths and remnants of Byzantine and Ottoman architecture.
