In the study, it is aimed to examine the bastion and the martyrdom and to bring a new landscape design proposal to the area in line with today's needs. For this purpose, the current situation of the area has been analyzed with all its environmental characteristics, structural and plant elements have been examined on-site, and problems and needs have been determined. Considering the characteristics of the area, ecological landscape design was made in a contemporary approach. Considering the location of the region to the Dardanelles Strait, a glass viewing terrace was designed for the purpose of viewing the landscape. In the design, attention was paid to the selection of plant species suitable for growing in the ecological characteristics of the region, and a rain garden was designed in the entrance section of the martyrdom area, where rainwater is use defectively. As a result of the study, the plan image and three-dimensional visuals of the proposed landscape design are given.
