Ankara's Historic Landmarks
Ankara's landscape spans thousands of years, from the Early Bronze Age Yumurtatepe Tümülüsü to the mid-20th century Anıtkabir mausoleum. This collection highlights the city's Roman legacy through the 3rd-century Roman Baths and the Temple of Augustus, which preserves the Res Gestae Divi Augusti inscription.
