The garden's owner, Burak Görgülü, has transformed the space into a mesmerizing oasis adorned with captivating elements like photo booths and engaging activities. A billboard graces the entrance, kindly requesting visitors, "It is forbidden to bring stress here."
Görgülü, warmly greeting guests within the garden's bounds, told Anadolu Agency (AA) that his dream came to fruition in 2019 when he succumbed to the allure of purple beauty and unveiled the lavender garden to the public.
Speaking about the lavender season, which typically extends until mid-July, Görgülü expressed: "Many people eagerly wait for this time to capture the essence of their special occasions. Even though the season has just begun, there is tremendous interest from individuals across Sakarya and beyond. We anticipate a significant surge in footfall throughout the season."

He remarked, "Everyone who steps in this haven departs with a smile. They express their gratitude for providing such a delightful sanctuary. Witnessing their happiness brings us immeasurable joy. Our visitors can leave this place feeling content and at peace. We offer an array of lavender products, all-natural and sourced from our garden. They can acquire lavender oil, hydrosol, soap, cologne and even bundles."
