Abdi İpekçi Park, Urban park in Sihhiye Square, Turkey
Abdi İpekçi Park is a green space in central Ankara with broad grass areas, mature trees, and multiple pathways for walking. The park includes a teahouse, children's play area, and a pool that breaks up the landscape.
The park was established in 1981 and named after a prominent Turkish journalist. It was later redesigned and expanded to serve more visitors from the city.
The park serves as a daily meeting place where residents gather for tea and conversation. Families and friends use the open spaces to pause from the bustle of the city.
The park is situated between two major city squares and is easy to reach from different directions. A nearby metro station and multiple bus lines provide several transportation options.
A sculpture of two hands reaching upward marks the landscape and has become a recognizable feature of the city center. Many visitors stop to notice this artwork as they move through the space.
