Opened in 2003 on the shores of the Golden Horn, Miniaturk (Miniatürk) is one of the largest miniature parks in the world. The park is divided into three sections: Istanbul, Anatolia, and Ottoman territories that now lie outside of Turkey. Visitors can explore detailed miniature re-creations of the country’s most significant landmarks and sites, providing a comprehensive overview of Turkey’s rich historical and cultural heritage. These scaled-down models offer a unique way to experience all the highlights of Turkey in a single visit.
