The 16 hectare space was opened to the public as a park in 1912. Two tree-lined paths run through the park, while along the sides there are places to sit and rest. There is also a childrens’ playground situated in the park. Immediately to the right of the hill that slopes down and curves around the Bosphorus is a statute of poet-musician Aşık Veysel, while on the higher portion at the end of the hill is the Column of the Goths (Turkish: Gotlar Sütunu), which is a remnant from the Roman period.
