Kyoto (Japanese) Park

📖 The Story

Laid out in the traditional Japanese garden art, the park offers a peaceful escape with ponds, wooden bridges, a pagoda and ornamental fish. It symbolises the sister-city bond between Konya and Kyoto. For those seeking photos and calm, it is a hidden oasis within the city.

When the ornamental cherries blossom in late April, the park becomes Konya's most photographed corner. Stone lanterns, the red arched bridge and the koi pond gather three classics of Japanese garden aesthetics; a break at the lakeside tea house completes the visit.
