Train Track Park

Train Track Park sits on the route of a former railway line and extends several kilometers through the city in a long, narrow shape. The space provides separate areas for walking and cycling, with many spots to sit and rest along the way.

The railway that once ran along this route was built during Ottoman times and stopped operating in the late 1900s. The abandoned tracks were later transformed into a public green space for the city.

The park serves as a connector between different neighborhoods, creating a shared space where residents and visitors move through the city together. Walking along the former tracks, you encounter various spots where people gather, rest, and observe daily life around them.

You can enter the park at many different points along its route, making it easy to access from various neighborhoods. Plan which section you want to explore and whether you prefer walking or cycling before you go.

The park earned an international award for innovative landscape design, highlighting its importance as an urban project. The transformation of an abandoned railway into an active gathering space shows how old infrastructure can find new purpose.
