The feeling of being disconnected from the world around us can be overwhelming, but escaping to nature can help us find a sense of belonging. By using all five senses to explore a place and experience its spatial effects, we can rediscover our connection with the natural world. This walking route, which will take place in Maçka Park, offers participants the chance to do just that. Along the way, participants will delve into the fields of history, ecology, and phenomenological philosophy to gain a deeper understanding of their surroundings and gain a new perspective on their relationship with nature.

Notes:

All participants must be in front of the Istanbul Congress Center at 13:30 with their tour tickets.

The route will start in front of the Istanbul Congress Center.
