Located in the heart of Turkey's tea-producing region, this thematic museum celebrates the deep-rooted cultural and economic significance of Turkish tea. The exhibits use sensory displays, mechanical models and digital storytelling to explain the entire tea production process from green leaf to traditional glass, with interactive screens detailing historical milestones throughout.

A distinctive detail — The museum sits inside — and is closely tied to — a giant building shaped like a traditional Turkish tea glass, standing nearly 30 meters tall.
