Lonely Planet review for Boztepe Picnic Place

On the hillside 2km southeast of Atatürk Alanı, is the Boztepe Picnic Place (Boztepe Piknik Alanı), with fine views of the city and the sea, tea gardens and restaurants. In ancient times, Boztepe harboured temples to the Persian sun god Mithra. Later, the Byzantines built churches and monasteries here. Now it's a top place for a sunset beer.

From Atatürk Alanı, take a frequent Boztepe dolmuş (TL1.50) from near the southeastern end of Atatürk Alanı. The route goes uphill 2.2km to Boztepe park.
