OUR TRIP TO TURKISH WORLD CULTURAL NEIGHBOURHOOD

A "neighbourhood" consisting of Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, Turkmenistan, Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus (TRNC), R.F. Tatarstan, Balkans and R.F. Cultural Houses from the Bashkortostan was created in Turkish World Cultural Neighbourhood established in Topkapı Culture Park.

There are exhibitions reflecting the cultures of the countries in the houses allocated in the Turkish Republics of the Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality, language courses are provided, their cuisines and crafts are introduced. These houses, which have flags of the countries they represent, are being coordinated by consulates and country representations in accordance with their mission as a bridge of communication and culture. Feasts such as Sabantuy, Nevruz and country independence days, which are unique to the Turkish world, are celebrated every year at the Topkapı Culture Park Culture Houses.

My students colored their country's flags.

ABOUT THE PROJECT

ABOUT THE PROJECT

Culture is the combination of traditions, customs, beliefs, thoughts and art transferred from generation to generation in society. It is our duty to protect and convey our cultural elements to future generations. One country’s culture plays an important role to develop its national unity and solidarity.
Introducing cultures consists of a bridge of intercultural cooperation, love and peace. Cultures are enriched when they are shared, and historical heritage is better protected by introducing cultures.
Our project will be an intercultural bridge where students introduce their own country, culture, food, local costumes, plays, songs by using their research and analysis competencies.
