Like the other islands, Arboretum Island aims to both display Turkey’s biological diversity and to encourage interest in nature and botany. This island opened to the public in 2011. And focuses is on species native to Turkey. The woody plants are arranged in groups representing Turkey’s three phytogeographical zones, Mediterranean, Euro-siberian and Irano-Turanian.
