About Şehit Fehmi Taşkın Parkı

Şehit Fehmi Taşkın Parkı is a neighbourhood park at the junction of Özdar Caddesi and 954 Sokak in the İnönü neighbourhood of Bornova. Bornova Municipality gave the park its name in March 2025, during the week marking the 110th anniversary of the Çanakkale victory, and planted a plane tree and a cypress in the park at the ceremony. The park honours First Lieutenant Fehmi Taşkın, who was killed in 1997 at the age of 22 in a clash in the Silvan district of Diyarbakır. In its review of 2025 the municipality lists it among four fully renovated parks that were given meaningful names that year.
