This is the location for the demonstrations that have been in the US media. It is a 10 minute metro ride away. The protests, which began as a reaction to a redevelopment plan for the park has continued to inspire Turks to question the direction and openness of their government. Peaceful protests continue daily with the uncertainty of police response constantly on people's minds.
