Location Detail

Eskişehir is where heritage meets the future—a vibrant, youthful city defined by its riverside charm, contemporary lifestyle, and academic energy. Known as one of Türkiye’s most livable cities, it offers a fresh, dynamic backdrop for productions centered on modern life, innovation, and social storytelling.

The Porsuk River cuts through the city like a silver thread, lined with cafes, footbridges, and tree-shaded walkways. Gondolas glide past modern art installations and relaxed crowds, giving the city an almost European rhythm. This riverside ambiance lends itself perfectly to lifestyle shoots, romantic scenes, or vibrant urban explorations.

As a major university town, Eskişehir radiates youth culture—with bustling art spaces, experimental theatre, festivals, and an open-minded atmosphere that embraces creativity. Street murals, vintage trams, and stylish locals add a touch of cosmopolitan cool to its otherwise Central Anatolian foundation.

Though relatively young in feel, the city’s Odunpazarı district offers a contrasting historical layer, with traditional houses, museums, and artisan workshops that ground the city in its rich Anatolian roots.

Eskişehir is ideal for filmmakers looking to capture Türkiye’s evolving identity—a place where old and new move together to the rhythm of the river and the voices of the next generation.
