At the southern end of the kordon (waterfront promenade) is a park dotted with guns, cannons and military artefacts. Behind the park is Çimenlik Kalesi , built by order of Mehmet the Conqueror in 1452, and near the park entrance is a small military museum containing exhibits on the Gallipoli battles and some war relics. Museum ticket-holders can also board the replica of the Nusrat minelayer, which played a significant role in the Çanakkale Naval Victory.
