enjoy your time with your kids on the holidays

All of our children, who studied from home in Turkey for a while, took a three-week semester break just yesterday. So now it is an excellent opportunity for the family to spend some time in nature. So where to go, what to do? Here are the places where you can enjoy nature as a family during the semester break.

Ormanya

Ormanya Wildlife Park consists of 12 regions. There is a children's zoo, wildlife area, camping area, recreation area, wildlife rescue, and rehabilitation center, Ormanköy, nature trails, bird-watching area, horse riding, sport angling, and exhibition hall. Due to the pandemic, those under the age of 20 can visit the area between 13.00 to 16.00. It is also closed on Mondays due to maintenance work, and you can go exploring in Ormanya on any weekday except on Mondays.

The district is full of old houses and mansions. For example, you can find the Keyvanlar, Armutculular, and Hacı Abdullalar Mansions. It is sure to be an excellent historical trip for children.
