It includes structures from Istanbul, Anatolia, and former Ottoman territories. Highlights include models of the Temple of Artemis and the Mausoleum at Halicarnassus. The park also features pools, waterways, and a parking lot for 300 vehicles, with additional space for future models.
The first film in the series was also shot in Istanbul. The city is ideal for filming due to its rich history, stunning architecture, and unique blend of cultures.
