Walking
If you are starting from the Marmaris Marina, head east towards the main road (Atatürk Cd). Once you reach the main road, turn left and continue walking until you see the bus station on your right. From the bus station, take the Dolmuş (minibus) heading towards Tepe. The Dolmuş will take you through the town and up the hill towards Tepe. Get off at the stop that is closest to the Children’s Monument. From there, it is a short walk uphill; follow the signs or ask locals for directions to the monument.
Public Transportation
From the city center, you can take a local bus from the main bus station towards Tepe. Make sure to get on a bus that indicates it goes to Tepe. After approximately a 15-20 minute ride, disembark at the Tepe stop. The Children’s Monument is within walking distance from this stop. Simply walk up the road, and you will soon see the monument on your left, surrounded by a small park.
