Homeros Valley, Urban park in Izmir, Turkey.

The Homeros Valley stretches across seven kilometers, featuring artificial ponds, walking paths, running tracks, cycling routes, and designated picnic locations.

The valley received its name from Homer, the 8th century BCE Greek poet who, according to local stories, lived in a cave within this area.

The valley contains an amphitheater that hosts community gatherings and performances, connecting residents with nature and the arts in an outdoor setting.

The recreation area includes an adventure sports center offering activities such as paintball, ATV rides, climbing walls, and zip lines from 10:00 to 21:00.

Research has identified 182 plant species from 54 families and 103 bird species inhabiting the valley's diverse ecosystem.
