Overview

The Çanakkale Epic Promotion Center, locally known as the Çanakkale Destanı Tanıtım Merkezi, utilizes advanced simulation technology to reconstruct the 1915 Gallipoli Campaign. The facility features 11 distinct exhibition halls equipped with three-dimensional screening systems and physical dioramas. Visitors experience the historical narrative through multisensory effects, including simulated artillery fire and environmental soundscapes. The center is specifically designed to provide an immersive overview of the Dardanelles War before visitors tour the open-air battlefields. It serves as a primary educational hub for the Gelibolu Peninsula Historical Site. The architecture incorporates subterranean elements to minimize visual disruption to the surrounding Gallipoli topography.
