    We have prepared a wonderful 2-day route for you that will make you forget about road fatigue, every minute of it has been carefully thought out, and you will return to the peaceful arms of PAVLONYA GARDEN in the evening! 

    🗓️ 1. day: The Discovery of a Peninsula in the Footsteps of History (Gallipoli)When you leave the big cities early in the morning and arrive in Çanakkale, we carry the excitement of the first day directly to the heart of history, the Gallipoli Peninsula.

    Introduction to History with Kilitbahir Castle

    Start the day by taking the ferry to Eceabat or connecting directly to the peninsula via the bridge. Let your first stop be the Çanakkale Kilitbahir Castle Museum, built by Fatih Sultan Mehmet on the narrowest part of the Bosphorus.

    Why Will You Like It?

    While its cloverleaf-shaped architecture attracts the attention of children, watching the strait from the walls of the castle offers a great viewing pleasure to the whole family.

    Hint: You can tell your children the stories of heroism by visiting the Seyit Corporal Monument right next to the castle.

    Emotional Moments at the Çanakkale Martyrs Monument

    Historical Place

    Open Çanakkale Martyrs Monument, which rises at the extreme point of the peninsula and is the place where the heart of this land beats, is the most meaningful stop of the first day.

    Why Will You Like It?

    The huge monument overlooking Morto Bay from the top is the right place to instill the awareness of national history in children. The symbolic martyrdoms and reliefs around it fascinate visitors of all ages.

    Hint:The large green areas around the Monument are also very suitable for children to breathe and walk comfortably after a long drive.

    🗓️ 2. day: Mythology, Shopping and City Enjoyment (Anatolian Side)after starting the day energetically with a wonderful breakfast spread in the peaceful garden under bird sounds and Pavlonia trees, we are devoting the second day to a lighter, fun and cultural program.
