About Batıkent Ali Dinçer Rekreasyon Alanı

Batıkent Ali Dinçer Rekreasyon Alanı, also known as Ali Dinçer Parkı, is an Ankara Metropolitan Municipality recreation area on Başkent Bulvarı in the Kentkoop neighbourhood of Batıkent, Yenimahalle. A local news report from October 2026 describes it as one of the largest green spaces in Batıkent. Inside it is the Erişilebilir Yaşam ve Oyun Parkı (Accessible Life and Play Park), opened in November 2022 by the metropolitan municipality together with the Ankara City Council and the Ankara Emek Rotary Club. The play park has equipment and courses designed for children with disabilities, physical and educational activity trails, and a rubber-coated surface to reduce the risk of injury from falls. At the opening the organisers said children with and without disabilities would play there together, that physiotherapists would be present at set times to show families how to use the equipment, and that special-education centres, nurseries and schools were welcome to use it. The park also contains a social and cultural facility area, which the municipality leased out for 10 years in 2025. In October 2026 renovation work on the new business there drew complaints from residents that it was expanding into former park space. Practical notes: the park lies on Başkent Bulvarı, where bus stops carry its name, about a kilometre from 2. Yüzyıl Parkı (Batıkent Rekreasyon Alanı).
