Pirler Park is a central urban green space located in the historic Sofular neighborhood of Amasya. The park serves as a local community hub, situated adjacent to the banks of the Yeşilırmak River.

The site is characterized by its proximity to the traditional Ottoman-era architecture found in the surrounding historical district.
