Mihrabat Nature Park, Nature park in Beykoz, Turkey
Mihrabat Nature Park is a green space in Beykoz on Istanbul's Asian side, featuring walking paths and open areas along the Bosphorus shoreline. The park provides room for strolling and sitting with views across the water and access to various recreational spots.
The area was converted into a park in the early 2010s to protect nature and biodiversity in the region. This effort was part of a broader initiative to preserve green spaces across the city.
The park serves as a gathering place where local residents spend time together and meet throughout the day. Visitors can observe how people use the green space as part of their daily routine and community life.
The park has several sports facilities such as basketball courts and football fields available for visitors to use. When planning a visit, note that entry requires a fee.
The park contains a mix of tree species including common hornbeam, sweet chestnut, and cedar trees that give the place botanical character. This variety of plants is notable for an urban green space in Istanbul.
