Özet:

Today outside our borders Greece in Thessaloniki the urban spaces built in the post-Tanzimat process and the findings about the uses and construction purposes of the "National Gardens" are the contents of our article. In the last period of the Ottoman, the construction decisions of the Beşçınar (Memleket/Millet), Beyazkule (Ittihad) and Pasha Gardens, which were organized as a new entertainment and tourist place, were evaluated by the studies carried out in the site of the Ottoman post-process. After the 1839 Tanzimat Ferman and the 1856 Islahat Ferman, the new structures that emerged due to changes in the state and community structure appeared as public buildings in neo-classic form with the weight of the monumental function, form and plan schemes that the society had not met until then. The public space is an important area not only for the innovations/changes that modernity brings, but also for the study of the cities and sociologically how the individual produces/identifies itself. The green space is a visible form of society’s reflections in the public spaces. By the 1860s, the Ottoman rulers understood the importance of architectural production in the political field, but this architectural change could not cover the city entirely. The "National Gardens", which appeared in the second half of the 19th century, has become the focus of public interest in terms of its locations, functions, construction decisions and processes and the traces of a different urban area formation.
