A very beautiful mall and a resting place and restaurants on the road between Ankara and Istanbul close to the city of Bulo, a very wonderful place with all the needs of the family and so on You have a gas station to fill up. Comfortable place And wonderful. I advise you to stop by

Its awesome. The best thing i like is there are hundreds of electrical car chargers. You can find good foods and drinks in the mall.

I liked this mall u can find almost anything u want , I just was dying from how hot the mall was but it’s something normal in turkey I guess, when u leave the mall there’s two tents they have offers on the clothes u should give it a look

A lot of free parking available, you need the S code to enter the mall, very big variety of restaurants and coffee shops to select, a lot of outlets with very competitive prices, the snow still there when we arrived, it’s a nice place to go with the family and kids, you have to try the Turkish coffee there.

A nice resting and shopping place. Has a beautiful masjid inside, lot of restaurants with reasonable food and service quality

There's everything you wish for 😌 With plenty of free parking 🅿️ The mall is Big 🛍️ Just need some fresh air conditioning 🌬️

I like this outlet mall, i stop by eveytime i go out of istanbul. Cloths are on sales, there're good restaurants and cafés, the toilets very clean. I recommend this place for some break

A must visit park! I had a great time walking by the lake. It was cold and foggy but still, I got to see the amazing view of the mansion and the reflection of all nature on water surface. Will definitely visit it again in spring!

Lotus Paradise at 1200m. Altitude. Beautiful Lake , full of Lotus flowers. Peaceful. Available weekends.

We stumbled upon this place when we drove back from Cappadocia to Istanbul. The park has good view and the air is super fresh. Lovely place for a walk.

a beautiful lake close to Bolu, about 10 minutes far.. beautiful road, through the mountain... There are restaurants and cafés toilets.. Kids playground.. The entrance fee for the car is 105 TL, you will park your car then walk around the lake and choose your preferred place to enjoy your time ... many free natural fountains to drink directly Recommended...

It's an amazing place high above the ground, right at the foot of a high mountain. You will also feel good seeing the small, calm, and picturesque city of Bolu during your travels there.

Gorgeous setting, even more beautiful during the sunset time. Nice uphill road while driving. A must see when around the area. Entrance with a fee of 105 TL for cars. There’s one restaurant which is rather low quality and overpriced. Best is to bring your own food, take portable chairs and relax next to the water. Not a very big lake, can walk around in 20-25 min. Perfect spot to relax.

Wonderful lake and nature walks

Recommended. It not far from Bolu town. Entrance fees is 105TL per car (pls see the price list for other) close at 7:00pm,the calcium pool was dry but the cave (bring the troch or phone it ok too)and view beautiful. Love the idea see a lot of people just come for picnic and BBQ with family. It is bargain if you devise the cost between friends. So I think it is reasonable price fees entrance.

Spectacular views and some interesting cave formations - not deep but big enough to walk about in. Just make sure you take the right path. The travertines themselves are a bit disappointing, just a series of hollows around a wedding centre, and (on our visit anyway) very very smelly. Like somebody was burning manure. Take the little flight of stone steps down near the natural water spring. The wated, btw, is something else. Kind of fizzy with calcium. You can get ayran made with it too. Unvelievable. Absolute nectar.

I think best time for it is not winter 😅. Beautiful scenery, amazingly the water is warm even though it was freezing its not spring water more like minerals water fizzy . The worker there said people come to bathe in the hot spring and mask in mud, but because it was winter and snow covers everything we barely saw anything.

Good nature, fresh and clean air, very green. Entrance fee is 20 tl And you get nothing in return, just fresh air and free mineral water

It's an honestly amazing place and is so natural with an extremely great amount of charming flowers to take pics of, and there are 1 or 2 restaurants there, and there are also two fancy foot pluging areas one for men and the othe othe is for women, but the water isn't any water, it's actuallynatural bicarbonate water and it drinkable, really recommend 👌😀😍

A very good view of travertines where is located in the countryside of Bolu. This place is suitable or proper for barbecuo or picnic. In addition to these, there are also plenty of small caves which is consits of lime from prehistoric ages I preassume. Flowing water, that contains calcium oxide, makes its way white lime stone even plants and solid. On the other sode of the coin, some travertines render black or brown due to not only dirtness but also uncared and neglected conditions. To sum up, it is worht to visit this spectacular place.

Excellent nature treacher with natural mineral water sour,fountains and pools available for public. There are also cafe and restaurant mainly available at peak seasons.

extremely lovely natural park... large with a lot of sitting areas... you can enter by your car and drive around the super lovely lake then choose where to sit and enjoy.. many toilets and restaurants... there is a camping area... In one word, it is the place to dive into nature... Highly recommended

Must visit! I enjoyed a full walk around the lake and I really recommend it. Just make sure you have a couple of hours to spare for the walk. Wear hiking shoes.

Visited in winter- with snow covered hills, pristine lake - such a peaceful and relaxing place. Came here practically every day when we stayed in the area. We are tourists so of course, we did the touristy thing and had a horse carriage ride. Was a pleasure

It is a good area with a lake and some facilities like having picnic and jogging, but garbage around was disappointing. There is also a museum with traditional model houses and mounted animals.

Lake Abant is a freshwater lake in Turkey's Bolu Province in northwest Anatolia, formed as a result of a great landslide. The lake lies at an altitude of 1,328 m at a distance of 32 km from the provincial seat of Bolu. It is a vacation and excursion spot for both Turkish and foreign travellers due to the natural environment, forests, and accessibility by car. It is served by a 21 km road. It is three hours' drive from İstanbul and Ankara. Lake Abant is a natural park. The lake covers an area of 1.28 km2 and its deepest spot is 18 m. The lake area has two large hotels in the immediate vicinity of the shores, as well as other amenities and services for visitors, who sometimes alternatively opt for the family guesthouses available in the nearby town of Mudurnu, 18 km to the south. European black pine, Scots pine, oaks, ashes, hornbeams, willows, junipers, tamarisks, hazels, common medlar, and strawberry trees are among the tree species that make up the lake's woodlands, and there are wild boars, fallow deer, roe deer , red deer, brown bears, wolves, red foxes, jackals, and rabbits in the surrounding forests, which makes the lake a prized location for hunters during the season. The lake is inhabited by the Abant trout Salmo abanticus, a (sub)species of trout which is strictly endemic to this lake only.

One of the most beautiful place to visit and stay in Bolu, quiet place, amazing view of forest.

Amazing place for the nature lovers, hiking enthusiasts or for any one who wants some fresh air and serene view. A must to see in Bolu. If you don't own a car, there is a bus from downtown Bolu that goes directly to the park, make sure to check the bus schedule before taking it.

Good ev yemekleri, helpful service

Eastern Promises There used to be a bad, mean trick; oldschool restaurants used to hide their price labels, to charge more money to the customers. We haven't seen for a long while, but Turk Mutfagi keeps on doing so unfortunately. We determined the food, ordered whatever we liked. Then, for a really simple menu, paid 115 TRY without drinks. A quite high standart for a restaurant in the mall huh? They served also cold too. The Tutkish tea was awful too. The only star they could get is the food seems to have quality ingredients and fast service. You can stop by only if you are in a big hurry cause it is pre-cooked mostly. Your choice, your money, your decision...

Absolutely beautiful dining room with delicious food as well. Exceptionally clean. Huge portions. I will go back soon.

Big disappointment . Not recommended. Cold and salty dishes. No taste at all.

Nice shopping center, it has good brands and always sale prices, nice design and comfortable layout, no need to go far away as it has almost what you need.

(Translated by Google) The Bolu Highway rest stop is one of the few places where you can eat a decent meal. Turkish cuisine's most well-known and popular dishes are always available. Even the soups are delicious, with at least 5-6 different varieties. The prices aren't like those of a small business restaurant, but they're certainly not exorbitant. The quality is what you get. We stop by here every now and then and enjoy a meal. (Original) Bolu Highway dinlenme tesisinde adam gibi yemek yiyebileceğiniz sayılı mekankardan. Türk mutfağının en bilinen sevilen yemekleri her daim var. Çorba çeşitleri bile en az 5-6 çeşit ve çok lezzetli. Fiyatlar tabiki bir esnaf lokantası gibi değil ama faiş bir fiyat asla yok. Kalitesinin karşılığı ne ise o. Biz burada mola verdikçe uğruyor ve keyifle yemek yiyoruz.

(Translated by Google) I've been stopping by this roadside rest stop or shopping mall for years, and I can say it's the only place that maintains its originality. I've been here countless times during my trips out of town, and I've never once experienced a slight deviation. The food is perhaps a bit pricey, but it's delicious and meticulously prepared. We stopped by again with a group of friends, and this time, we were delighted. Congratulations. (Original) Bu yol üstü dinlenme tesisinde veya AVM'de yıllar yılı uğrarım ve çizgisini bozmayan tek yer diyebilirim. O kadar şehir dışı seyahatinde buraya uğradım bir kez olsun sapma görmedim. Yemekler evet belki bir tık pahalı ama lezzetli ve titizlikle hazırlanıyor. Biz yine bir arkadaş grubu olarak buraya uğradık ve bu kez de memnun kaldık. Tebrikler.

Nice view nested in the Gölcük tabiat parkı (eco restaurant). The food wasn't as expected but we enjoyed the view. We ordred tereyağlı patates, tavuk, köfte, and çorba.

Window was leaking while raining, so I don’t recommend sitting near the window although that’s where the view is. Also when I first walked in I asked for the price for breakfast they said $1250, when I went to pay at the end they charged me $1400. When I asked why they charged extra they said it’s for the service. They didn’t specify this when I asked for the total amount.

Location perfect Price normal and not high like 2 person breakfast can be start from 60TL Service good and stuff was so helpful Its one of two restaurants beside the wonderful Lake have nice view and nice to warm yourself with a cup of tea in wintertimes

I recently dined at Golcuk Manzara restaurant, and it was an exceptional experience. The breathtaking natural surroundings enhanced the ambiance, creating a serene atmosphere. The attentive and friendly staff contributed to a welcoming environment, making the dining experience even more enjoyable. The kitchen showcased an impressive array of dishes, each a delightful blend of flavors. Overall, Golcuk Manzara deserves a solid 5-star rating for its harmonious integration of nature, attentive staff, and delectable cuisine.

I recommend this restaurant for everyone who loves nature and good food. The service also deserve 5 stars

Amazing atmosphere and food and very hospitable staff. A beautiful experience all around. Will definitely return.

We liked their garden area and food. It was super delicious. Thanks

The place is perfect The prices is higher than other restaurants,because it’s tourist location. The food is average but not bad

The köfte wasn’t juicy, but the taste was okay. The waiter didn’t really know how to welcome or serve us. 1 kg of köfte was 1350₺. The waiter said 1 kg includes 9 or 10 pieces, depending on the size. We asked him to weigh 10 pieces of köfte, and he said it was 1.5 kg. So, we ordered 1 kg. When the food came, it had 9 pieces. If one piece is not half a kilo, the waiter was literally telling a lie.

The only thing that is nice about this restaurant is the view. We tried kunafe and other sweet dish they were very bad . The coffee served tastes old and as it is stored for long period of time However, it is nice to sit by the lake and enjoy the view.

Comments are 100% accurate. They charge us 300 TL for service fees. I wouldn’t mind paying a thousand if the staff was not that depressed! Food was below average id recommend going there for coffee only for the sake of the view.

Pleasant setting on the lake. Good food and service. Fair prices. I would revisit.

Extremely nice view on the lake with great food

Good food amazing view
