An inventory of campsites and caravan sites is ongoing in six provinces in Turkey's Black Sea region. The effort aims to create a unified register of such areas.

In Eskişehir, parking of caravans on streets and roads has been banned in six districts. The decision was made by UKOME to ensure vehicle circulation and maintain traffic order. The ban applies to travel trailers and motorhomes in the Sümer, Kırmızıtoprak, Vişnelik, Osmangazi, Hoşnudiye, and Orhangazi districts. Violators will face fines under Road Traffic Law No. 2918.

Construction of a caravan park has begun in Çorlu, Turkey, adjacent to a recreation area developed by the municipality in cooperation with the Chamber of Commerce and Industry. Mayor Ahmet Sarıkurt inspected the site and said the park will boost alternative tourism and provide comfortable facilities for caravan owners. The project is expected to be completed shortly.

Turkish manufacturer Ortsan Outdoor has unveiled the 'Mini House Caravan', a trailer that measures 4 meters in length and 2.1 meters in width when closed, and expands to 20.4 square meters when opened. It features a kitchen with a gas stove, a bathroom, a 90-liter refrigerator, and a 200-liter water tank. The price is around 16,700 euros, including a 470-watt solar panel. The concept is not new: in the 1980s, Dutch architect Eduard Böhtlingk created a similar 'De Markies', but it never went into production.
