Public restrooms for park visitors have been added as part of the new cultural park venue. The facility features a stone building and, like the amphitheater stage building, is covered by a conical shaped thatched roof and features special Medieval chandeliers. About 12 inches of special thatch roofing consists of Turkish water reed and English combed wheat.
