Konya Metropolitan Municipality prepared a nostalgic surprise for the residents of the nursing home ahead of October 1, International Day of Older Persons.

As part of the “Once Upon a Time in Konya” themed program, designed to offer a nostalgic journey from past to present, our elders were taken from the nursing home in classic cars provided by the Konya Classic Car Association to join a city tour.

Our elders, who had the opportunity to explore the city’s beauties in nostalgic vehicles, enjoyed the pleasure of taking a journey back in time.

Our elders also watched the Turkish cinema classic “Neşeli Günler” as part of an outdoor screening, enjoying a piece of Yeşilçam’s cinematic heritage.

In addition, the specially prepared “Old Konya Photographs” exhibition brought back memories of Konya for our elders. With various refreshments, photo spots, and nostalgic arrangements, the event offered guests an unforgettable experience. Participants were also given a nostalgic radio as a keepsake of the day.

The nursing home residents, expressing their happiness after spending a day full of nostalgia, conveyed their thanks to Konya Metropolitan Municipality and everyone involved for organizing this meaningful event.
