Questions about this page

How many nature & landscapes are there in Turkey?

173 on this map, out of 25,830 worldwide. That is what Wikidata records for Turkey with coordinates, a photograph and a Wikipedia article — the real number on the ground is larger, and for some countries much larger.

Which is the oldest?

Yedigöller National Park, dated to 1965. 23 of these 173 carry a founding date.

Where does this information come from?

Every place is drawn from Wikidata (CC0), with photographs from Wikimedia Commons and a link to its English Wikipedia article. Selection is deterministic: a place is here because Wikidata files it under one of the classes this atlas carries and it has coordinates, a photo and an article. Nothing is written or chosen by an AI, and the ranking is simply how many Wikipedia language editions cover a place.
