1. Recognized as the emblem of Ankara, the Citadel commands a commanding view of the city. Built by the Hittites or the Phrygians, it is the oldest area of the city, with residents living mostly unchanged from 600 years ago. The area was inhabited prior to 2000 BC.

   30 minEntrée incluse

2. This museum's displays, which begin with an intriguing display of artifacts from the Catal Huyuk site—often referred to as the first known human community in the world—place an unusual emphasis on the earlier invaders of Anatolia. Highlights include a series of tablets whose translations serve as a reminder of how little has changed in the world over the ages.

   1,5 hEntrée incluse

3. Dating back to the 13th century, Ahi Şerafettin Mosque is a masterpiece of Seljuk architecture, famous for its intricately carved wooden columns and ceiling. Imagine a wooden structure standing strong for over 700 years — this is one of the rare UNESCO-listed mosques that still preserves its original spirit.

4. Ataturk, the creator of the Turkish Republic, a revolutionary, a valiant soldier, a great leader, and a global figure, is eternally resting in this mausoleum. Built in 1953 and completed with a view over Ankara, it was the site of Ataturk's burial in November of that same year. Numerous Turkish artists have contributed statues, reliefs, and other embellishments to the mausoleum.

About Ankara

Ankara is the capital of Turkey, a high-plateau city with Atatürk's mausoleum, a great museum of Anatolian civilisations and an old citadel quarter.

Ankara stands on the Anatolian plateau about 900 metres above sea level, and became the capital of the Turkish Republic in 1923. Anıtkabir, the hilltop mausoleum of the republic's founder, Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, is a vast monument of stone with a museum of his life. The old citadel quarter, Hisar, climbs a hill in the oldest part of town, with Ottoman wooden houses, small shops and views over the modern city.
