A great park in the old city around 400 meters from my apartments. It used to be the Topkapı Palace gardens. Now it is an oasis in the middle of old town. It has a very nice park for children inside, a nice cafe, places to sit and enjoy the birds tweeting.

I think Istanbul is a very green city. Here is a big forest in Istanbul with some cafes inside, walking paths, a dam and some places to make picnic.
