In the Mediterranean Basin and the Near East, a kiosk (Persian: کوشک kušk; Arabic: كشك‎ košk; Turkish: köşk; Tagalog: kyos; Urdu: کھوک khoka; French: kiosque; Greek: κιόσκι; German: Kiosk; Polish: kiosk; Estonian: kiosk; Czech: kiosek; Portuguese: quiosque; Romanian: chioşc; Bulgarian: кьошк kyoshk; Croatian: kiosk Serbian: киоск or kiosk; Russian: киоск kiosk; and Spanish: quiosco or kiosco) is a small, separated garden pavilion open on some or all sides. Kiosks were common in Persia, India, Pakistan, and in the Ottoman Empire from the 13th century onward. Today, there are many kiosks in and around the Topkapı Palace in Istanbul, and they are still a relatively common sight in Greece.

The word, which is of Persian origin, refers to an object that acts as a shadow or shade-maker.

The word "köşk" is currently used to refer to an old Ottoman style building, made of wood and clad with stone, with multiple storeys, built for a wealthy person, set in a garden, and mainly used for recreation. During the 18th century, Turkish influences in Europe established the kiosk (gazebo) as an important feature in European gardens. origin the word kiosk originally came from the Swahili language in the east African coast, (Swahili was as a result of Arabic and Bantu speaking cultures coming together) it meant a small miniature shop that had everything in small sizes. In English-speaking countries, a kiosk is a booth with an open window on one side. Some vendors operate from kiosks (see mall kiosk), selling small, inexpensive consumables such as newspapers, magazines, lighters, street maps, cigarettes, and confections.
