The oldest and most expansive historical urban park in Istanbul, once serving as the outer royal gardens of Topkapi Palace. Translated as the Rosehouse Park, it becomes a dazzling carpet of millions of blooming bulbs during the annual Istanbul Tulip Festival in spring. Broad pedestrian pathways wind beneath centuries-old plane trees, leading to viewpoints overlooking the Bosphorus.
