Tourist and leisure destinations in Esenyurt district 2022

With hundreds of attractive locations to explore, Esenyurt is recognized for its expansive green space and a range of activities and leisure options. Although Esenyurt lacks a lake or a sea, it is near Büyükçekmece's 26-kilometer-long shoreline, which makes up 3.5 percent of Istanbul's land area. In the area, there are over 60 children's playgrounds and 10 big parks, providing residents with a valuable recreational outlet. We begin with the massive Esenyurt Square, which is Esenyurt's most well-known landmark, where Arab and Syrian restaurants and stores are scattered on the sides of the square, giving the impression that you've returned to an Arab country. It's quite similar to the streets of some Arab cities, where Arab shops and marketplaces, such as Shamna Mall and Family Mall, can be found.
