The little worlds waiting for you in the park
Lydia Han
A nostalgic journey where you can see and learn about countless rare antiques — pieces that have perhaps spent centuries in this universe, touched dozens of lives and changed the flow of everyday life, enchanting us with their patterns, textures and history. A space where you watch your family past and childhood unfold like a film reel: Lydia Han. It will be one of your favourite places at Lydia Park Nature.
Organic Cafe
The most comfortable resting corner of the park, where you'll find herbal teas unique to Lydia Park Nature (especially thyme tea), along with natural products and flavours that reach our shelves thanks to our support for local production. A beloved stop on long journeys, designed to turn the Lydia Park experience into a pleasant break. Enjoy!
Ancient Coin Minting
The first coin was minted in the time of the Lydian King Croesus, from electrum — a gold-and-silver alloy — in a bean shape. Once invented in the Lydian Kingdom, the coin spread quickly beyond Asia Minor to the lands around the Mediterranean. In honour of the region's historical importance, we invite you to mint a coin and feel like a Lydian king. We're afraid we can't share the tips and the secret recipe for keeping your very first coin — and getting rich — until you come to Lydia Park Nature… allow us that much! And if you'd rather play it safe and have your wishes "insured," our wishing corner awaits you.
Gift Shop
If your path brought you to Sart and we hosted you at Lydia Park Nature, you may want to pass this experience on to your loved ones, share and multiply this story — or perhaps you simply love living with memories. If so, we recommend browsing the gift shop inside our museum. Antique objects, natural soaps, jewellery and thousands more products will be waiting for you.
Insect Hotel
You can become part of the lives of our residents — pets and not-so-pets :) — who live at Lydia Park Nature and have each taken on little duties of their own, becoming the most beautiful part of our lives over time. The adventure that begins at the insect hotel continues with duck ponds, lounge cat suites and bird mansions. Photos coming soon — and for those who can't wait, come to the park now!
Our Events
As Lydia Park Nature continues its journey as a UNESCO Kula–Salihli Geopark partner, we couldn't move on without mentioning the events we host within the park. From Theatre Days to children visiting us on school trips from abroad, from events spread across the year with our musicians and artists to our stands at fairs, we've already hosted many attractions. We'd love for you to join this colourful world and become one of the smiling faces in our gallery.
