Anitkabir

Reviewed By FloopySandlet101 - Basel, Switzerland

We've been to Anitkabir on numerous different occasions by now. It really is simply a magnificent place, tributed to Gazi Mustafa Kemal Atatürk. The thing is, it is hard to review a place like this in detail, as it contains a lot of information about Atatürk, is free and even if the prior two statements wouldn't be there, it still is just beautiful. In the center of Ankara, with a great view almost the entire 360 degrees. It really simply is a must-see in Ankara. Also to learn more about the most important man in recent Turkish history, who's name and portrait you can see pretty much across Turkey. Offline reading about him in addition is also definitely recommended.

Anadolu Medeniyetleri Muzesi

This fascinating museum contains over 200,000 historic pieces of which only a fraction can be displayed at one time. Exhibits include Early Bronze Age statues and Neolithic wall paintings.

Reviewed By JaneE604 - New York City, United States

This is an outstanding museum, one of the best I have ever visited. The exhibits are fascinating and particularly well curated. This should be on everyone's "must see list" when in Turkey. I visited Ankara specifically to see this place and it was absolutely worth the trip. A circuit covers the history of Anatolia from the Paleolithic era through to the Uratians documented with amazing artifacts. Don't miss it! My only (small) compliant is that a few items were missing leaving an empty stand with the identity card still beside it. I expect they were on loan to other museums but it would have been nice to have some explanation provided.

The Ulucanlar Prison Museum is a former state prison in Ankara, Turkey that was converted into a prison museum following restoration by Altındağ Municipality. The museum was opened in 2011.
