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
Aslanhaen 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
