About Genclik Park

Genlick Park is a great retreat for a relaxing walk or run. The park is just a short distance away from the Ankara railway station. It is the perfect place to bring the children for a fun day out with a lot of playing options. The park has coffee houses around the main pool, a swimming pool, a Luna park, an open-air theatre, and tracks. The Luna park has two roller coasters which are extremely thrilling and fast. Post the restoration and renovation works, you can find a cultural center, youths' center, and Ankara Municipality Convention Hall as well as 43 kiosks in the park. During the night, light performances are held in the main pool, which is one of the main attractions. The park provides a nice break from the claustrophobic confinements of the adjacent old neighborhoods.
