Öz

Polonezköy was founded in 1842 as a refugee settlement and has served long as a refuge for the Poles escaping from their long-occupied home and for the Polish soldiers escaping from the Russian army. Always attracted attention of the Istanbullites since its establishment with its difference cultural structure, the village is also one of the oldest natural recreational areas in Istanbul. Started with hunting in the forests surrounding the village from 1910 on, the recreational activities have developed in the course of time and increasingly developed this quality of it as a result of declaration of the village as "national Natural Park" in 1994 and "natural sit area" in 1995. Polonezköy is an important entertainment and recreational area preferred by most of the Istanbullites in recent years especially for short-term holidays (most of the time for daily or weekly excursions) thanks to easy transportation facilities from the downtown, forestry nature still undestroyed, cultural features it has and a number of accommodation facilities.
