Miniature Park

Miniature Park is an open-air museum in Örnektepe Mahallesi, Turkey, displaying scaled replicas of major buildings from Turkey and neighbouring regions. The site includes paths through landscaped gardens and themed zones where over one hundred miniatures are grouped by historical origin.

The museum opened in the early 2000s and was one of the first parks in Turkey to present architecture as miniature models. Since then, the collection has expanded to include replicas spanning both Byzantine and Ottoman periods.

The models represent structures from Turkey and former Ottoman territories beyond the present borders, giving visitors a chance to see architecture from the entire historical realm in one place. Many of the monuments shown are otherwise difficult to reach or scattered across several countries, making this park a way to grasp key periods at a glance.

The park is open every day of the week, and the best time to visit is late morning or afternoon when crowds are lighter. Wheelchair-accessible paths run throughout the grounds, making it easy for visitors with mobility needs and families with strollers to reach most areas.

Visitors can see structures that are now difficult to visit due to distance or political borders, such as monuments in the Balkans or Middle East. The park also includes models of modern Turkish bridges and railway stations not typically found in historical collections.
