Fethi Paşa Korusu, Historic grove in Üsküdar, Turkey.
Fethi Paşa Korusu is a wooded park in Üsküdar that stretches from the Bosphorus shoreline across hillsides. The grounds feature walking paths, two swimming pools, a waterfall, picnic areas, and children's playgrounds throughout the landscaped terrain.
The site takes its name from Fethi Ahmet Pasha, an Ottoman official who played a role in the empire's administrative changes during the 1800s. It was established to honor this connection to Istanbul's past and serve the modern city.
The space serves as a social hub where families and neighbors gather for outdoor time together. Walking through it, you'll see groups enjoying their daily activities and spending leisure moments in the green surroundings.
The grove offers entry through two gates positioned on different sides for easy access. Walking between different areas is manageable thanks to maintained paths that connect facilities and resting spots throughout the grounds.
Twenty trees of significant age stand protected throughout the grounds, playing a role in maintaining the area's natural environment. These old specimens help preserve Istanbul's ecological character and add depth to the landscape.
