Indoor Picnic at Emirgan Park, Istanbul
Experience a perfect picnic indoors away from the unpredictable November weather. It's romantic, budget-friendly and cozy, perfect for an unforgettable date.
- While the fall weather in Istanbul during November might be a bit unpredictable, that doesn't mean you have to scrub your romantic picnic off your calendar. Instead, take it indoors in a cozy corner of your home, or a rented cabin or lodge in Emirgan Park. Plan to have your indoor picnic during the day so you can make the most of the natural light.
- You can setup a comfy picnic area with a rug, throw pillows and fairy lights for that warm and inviting ambience. Pack a basket with your favourite picnic foods and snacks. You might not be able to spread out under the trees, but you can enjoy the view of the beautiful park as you nibble on your treats and sip some Turkish tea.
- To make your indoor picnic date more memorable, consider having a theme, like a 'Turkish Tea Tasting' or 'Bread from Around Turkey'. It's a way to add an extra zing of interest and anticipation to your indoor picnic.
Preparation steps:
- First, you need to pick out a perfect spot in your home or at your rented cabin at Emirgan Park setting up the picnic. Look for somewhere with a lot of natural light, ideally by a window that looks onto the park.
- Next, you need to setup your picnic area. Spread a soft rug on the floor and arrange some throw pillows around for seating. Add some fairy lights and possibly some scented candles for that perfect, warm and inviting ambiance. You may also want to put together a playlist of soft, romantic music to play in the background.
- Finally, you need to prepare your picnic basket. Pack sandwiches, snacks, fruits, and of course Turkish tea. You can also add a special touch by including some typical Turkish picnic foods like Börek or Menemen.

Some tips:
- Make sure you check the weather forecast even though you're planning an indoor picnic. You want to take advantage of as much natural light as possible to make the picnic feel more authentic.
- Don't forget to clean up after your picnic. Leaving a spotless area shows respect for the environment and means you'll be welcomed back again.
- You might want to add something unexpected to your menu. For example, a secret family recipe or favourite childhood snack. It's not only a wonderful surprise but also a great conversation starter.
