The cultural elements are significant for native language teaching, so it is unavoidable that the Turkish textbooks include cultural elements. The aim of the research is to determine the presence of intangible cultural heritage elements in the visual materials (painting, photography etc.) in the secondary school 6th grade Turkish language textbook, and to examine the distribution of them according to their types. As a consequence of the study, 277 visual materials were determined as 125 photos, 98 digital drawings, 23 drawing, 15 illustrations, 4 banners, 3 table, 2 brochure, 2 graphics, and 2 sketches. Visuals that have intangible cultural heritage elements are found in photos which are Turkish coffee, Turkish delight, kemenche, horon, Mardin, Zeibek traditional, Palace of Ishak Pasha, tarhana soup, the making of tarhana, weaving, javelin game; digital drawings which are Nasreddin Hodja, Karagöz and shadow puppetry and drawings that are Chinese whispers, handkerchief game, kissing someone's hand. Gender apartheid or violent elements has not been detected in the visuals and they are appropriate for the grade level and text content. The visuals have properties of enhancing aesthetic sensitivity; however, the drawings are incomplete in terms of facial expression and emotion.
