Atatürk Park, Public park in Mersin, Turkey.

Atatürk Park extends along the Mediterranean coastline for 1,200 meters, covering 16 hectares with flower beds and walking paths near the port.

The park emerged from fill material dredged during the construction of Mersin Harbor in the 1950s, transforming the original Mediterranean shoreline.

The Refah Martyrs Monument stands at the center of the park, commemorating maritime tragedies with inscriptions about the Refah and Ertuğrul disasters.

The Congress and Exhibition Center, built in 2008, provides 3,160 square meters of conference space with three large halls and an artificial lake.

An amateur fishermen's club operates next to the old marina section of the park, maintaining the connection to local maritime traditions.
