History of Turkish Republic contains exemplary endeavours
of Mustafa Kemal Atatürk who showed an admirable exertion to elevate the
republic to standards of the contemporary civilisations following the
proclamation of the republic. Amongst his endeavours, the wooden building,
named as Yürüyen Köşk (The Moving House)
by the locals in Yalova province, and the adjacent Ulu Çınar Ağacı (The Great Plane Tree) are of immense significance
as indicators of Atatürk’s sensibility towards nature in environmental and
museum studies. Conveying a message of love
of nature not only to Turkish people but also the rest of the world, The Moving
House, also known as Atatürk House Museum, demonstrates the exertion of a
leader imbued with love of nature and people. Whilst executing his designs into
nourishing the newly-found republic, Atatürk was also well aware of the significance
of nature in every single territory that had been reclaimed during Turkish War
of Independence. His decision to relocate the custom-built house exemplifies the
extent of his respect for nature. By abstaining from cutting a bough of a tree
at a time when issues such as ozone layer depletion, global warming, pollution,
acid rains, destruction of forests, and changing climates were neither known
nor mentioned, Atatürk’s conduct has set an example of love of nature for the
entire humanity. The public’s support for environmental consciousness and the
museum is blatantly reflected in record-breaking numbers of visitors since conversion
of the house into a museum during the 1980s. The amount of interest and solicitude
shown by the locals of Yalova Province is a proof of their ardour to safely
hand down the token of Atatürk’s memory the future generations. This article
will discuss amalgamation of the story of Atatürk’s environmental mind-set with
the museum and its impact of Yalova Province.
