Martyrs Park offers a nice contrast to the fast pace of urban life. Go for a wander around the grounds or fling off your shoes and feel the soft grass beneath your feet.
This Karesi recreation and green space is an ideal spot to start your day of sightseeing. There's loads to explore nearby, such as Balikesir Clock Tower, and Ataturk Stadium. Take your time at Martyrs' Park before making tracks to these other fine attractions.
