April 23, Turkey - Feast of National Sovereignty and Children Festival

Many probably know that the 23 of April is official children holiday in Turkey (Cocuk Bayrami). It is an official holiday on which all public authorities are closed.

But Children's Day is only the short name. Actually, it is the National Sovereignty Day and Day of the Child (23 Nisan Ulusal Egemenlik ve Cocuk Bayram?).

On April 23, 1920 the first parliament was founded - the Grand National Assembly of Turkey (Turkiye Buyuk Millet Meclisi). This laid the foundation of the national liberation movement and the abolition of the rule of the Sultan of the Ottoman Empire. Since 1921, April 23 is a national holiday called "National Day" (23 Nisan Milli Bayram).

Children's Day is celebrated since 23 April 1927, on the initiative and with the support of the first president of the young Republic of Turkey, Mustafa Kemal Ataturk.

Since 1981, that day brings officially celebrations so as: in Ankara - at the mausoleum of the founder of the Turkish Republic and in other cities - at all Atatürk monuments. In the stadia sports competitions of students are held and schools are preparing celebrations and small performances.

Antalya will get its own Disneyland

The CEO of Galeri Kristal Group, Tuncay Kilit, announced the plan to build a large amusement park in Antalya.

In the town of Belek, a famous holiday destination for golf turizm, plans to open a new theme park, the Turkish equivalent of Disneyland. The theme park will be developed on a land of 630,000 sq.m.

According to Tuncay Kilit:

"At the moment, we have already signed a contract with the famous American firm Forrec, a leading specialist of the entertainment industry. This will be a truly exclusive and ambitious project.

After completion of the project in the region expects a very large decrease of visitors from all around the world, which will increase also the duration of the tourizm season in Belek. Currently, negotiations with representatives of Disneyland are held. If an agreement will be found, Antalya will get its own Disneyland. If not, the park will have different name, that essentially changes nothing.

On the territory of the theme park it is planned to build sports complexes, a giant aquarium, shopping and entertainment facilities, pedestrian and bicycle paths, a variety of attractions.

New hotels will be built, cafes and restaurants, a cinema, zoo, shops, sports facilities, exhibition halls, religious buildings.
