Turkey’s Prime Minister Ahmet Davutoglu stated that Istanbul’s Taksim Square is the world’s ugliest Square. 

Davutoglu told reporters that he is writing a book about cities and civilizations, and which he will complete soon, reported Haberoku website of Turkey.

He stressed that, in the book, he wrote the section about Istanbul at the time when the incidents were occurring at Gezi Park in Taksim Square.  

The Turkish PM also noted that he does not agree with many people who say that Taksim Square is beautiful.

“Taksim is the world’s ugliest square. Taksim became a square by accident. If the barracks there had not been dismantled, we would not have seen a square there. In the past, there was an Armenian graveyard there,” Ahmet Davutoglu stated, in particular.
