Ankara Essentials

Ankara showcases a timeline of Anatolian history, from the 3rd-century Roman Baths and the Temple of Augustus to the monumental Anıtkabir mausoleum. The city’s cultural core includes the Museum of Anatolian Civilizations, housed in a 15th-century bazaar, and the historic Ankara Castle. Modern landmarks like the Kocatepe Mosque and the Atakule observation tower contrast with the preserved cells of the Ulucanlar Prison Museum and the Republic-era Ethnography Museum.
