When it is hot and stuffy outside, you can relax in the park, prepare your visit to Yıldız Palace by reading a book, or have a cup of coffee in one of the Ottoman pavillons.
If you want to go to a place where you can just sit and enjoy the greenery and maybe have a picnic then this is the place for you.
