Tour Itinerary; Pick up from airport/train station or hotel. Almost a decade in the building, Ataturk's Mausoleum really should be on the itinerary of any visitor to the country's capital. Visible from most highpoints within the city, the mausoleum grounds house a memorabilia museum and the sarcophagus of Ismet Inonu, a major figure in the Republic's history. The tomb itself is an impressive piece of work. We then visit the Museum of Anatolian Civilisation (collections place an unusual emphasis on the earlier of Anatolia's occupiers, starting with an interesting exhibit of finds from the Catal Huyuk site, often described as the earliest known human community in the world). Next we view the Aslanhan Camii 13th century Selcuk Mosque (A good example of an Ulu Camii or forest mosque, so called because of the carved wooden columns supporting the wooden roof) and the Haci Bayram Camii built in the early 15th Century by the founder of the Bayramiye order of dervishes. Spend the afternoon wandering around the Ankara Cidatel - Located on a high hilltop looming over the old city, this amazing fortress was first constructed in 200 BC by the Gaulish race of Galatians, and was later modified by the Roman, Byzantines and other occupiers. The citadel itself is open to exploration, while the area around it, being one of the oldest quarters in Ankara, is filled with curious and ancient houses and relicts, as well as shops, restaurants and other diversions. Tour finishes around 17:30. Drop of at your hotel or transfer to next town/airport.
