Turkish gardens

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Jump to: navigation, search

The term Turkish gardens can be used to mean either 'gardens made in Turkey', which includes Byzantine gardens or 'gardens made under the influence of Turkish culture'. As a nomadic people, originating in East Asia, the Turks did not have a native tradition of making gardens. It was learned after making contact with Persian civilisation and further developed after settling in cities previously occupied by Greco-Roman civilisation.
