Kelebek Su Parkı

About Kelebek Su Parkı

Kelebek Su Parkı (Butterfly Water Park) is a park in the Ahi Mesut neighbourhood of Etimesgut, laid out around a large pool. Ankara Metropolitan Municipality describes it as a 38485 square metre park containing a pool of about 14000 square metres, with the park's green areas formed by small islets inside the pool. The park first opened in 2014 but, according to the municipality, fell into neglect soon afterwards. Ankara Metropolitan Municipality later renovated it at a cost of 3.4 million lira: the pool's electrical system was renewed and measures were taken to save water, the landscaping was redone, park and street furniture were replaced, and more green space and trees were added on the islets. Practical notes: the park is in a residential part of Etimesgut, west of central Ankara. OpenStreetMap maps it as a park in Ahi Mesut Mahallesi.
