On the 6th day in Istanbul we wanted to discover other green areas so we had been far away from Fatih. Emirgan Park is located in Sarıyer, a famous İstanbul district situated on the European coast of the Bosphorus. It’s among the largest and most renowned parks of İstanbul, and offers a relaxing escape from the city’s crowds. Emirgan Park is home to three historic pavilions, named after the color of their exterior: Sarı Köşk (Yellow Pavilion), Pembe Köşk (Pink Pavilion), and Beyaz Köşk (White Pavilion). A tulip festival takes place at the park annually in a special garden, which was established in the 1960s to revive the city’s tradition of tulip cultivation. During the festival, the tulips, İstanbul’s traditional flower, you will encounter here are truly a sight to behold!
