The aim of this paper is to examine the relationship between site management plans and the
conservation-revitalization projects in context of the spatial-functional plan decisions and institutional
authority-responsibility. These examinations have been handled with a method which depends on
comparative-assessment of three basic data sources: conservation plans, conservation-revitalization
projects and site management plan. The case study is The Süleymaniye Mosque and its environs which
had been declared “historic-urban protected site” in 1977 and was inscribed on UNESCO World
Heritage List within the scope of “Historic Areas of Istanbul” in 1985.However; socio-spatial and
functional strategies for the Süleymaniye Mosque and its environs have been determined by Historical
Peninsula Site Management Plan dated 2009. We believe that this study will present alternative
perspectives to the problems arising in the context of coordination among stakeholders in the process
of conservation-revitalization of historical urban environments through the re-evaluation of the
institutional and managerial scope and content of the site management models through the case of
Turkey.
