If you are in Istanbul and look towards the Asian section of the city, and wondered about the green space that extends on the edge of the suspension bridge and the center of the Turkish flag, or you cut the Bosphorus in one of the tours and I saw that space here is the answer; it is the gardens of Otag or as we are told in Turkish and his books ( Otağtepe, meaning Otag Hill. It is a vast expanse of greenery on the edge of the Sultan Mehmet's light bridge with a fascinating view of the strait and the European side of the city.
The hill has taken its name since the days of Sultan Bayezid, and has remained until this day called as well. It is an old Ottoman word in the sense of Fustat, the house built of poetry. The Ottoman sultan was said to have encamped there during the days of his siege of Constantinople. And extends over an area of 152.000 m 2 at the end of the second suspension bridge, the Sultan Mohamed El Fateh Bridge.
A walk and jogging corridor of 10,000 meters is covered in the park, surrounded by green areas on each side, planted with lily, jade, chestnuts, lilies and lilies. Since its inauguration in 1996, the plant, which has been established and inaugurated, has planted 1,700 trees with 5,000 shrubs of 1,500 shrubs.
In the entrance to the garden you see a statue of a Turkish charity figure (Wehbe Koch). Wehbi was the director of the Waqf, which worked to reopen the garden and its inauguration. The view of the park is undoubtedly one of Istanbul's most beautiful and spacious. The park overlooks the Romani Siege castle, the Ortakwi area and many of the palaces on the European side.
