Ankara - the capital of Turkey, population about 3 500 000.
Tallest building: Sheraton Hotel, 143 meters
















My rating - 7/10 - it lacks height and is rather chaotic, but looks quite good.

Very good!.
The city is exactly what it sould be for a capital. Nice, green and beautiful!. It has just the right skyline. Capitals of some countries have skylines that are too dense. Ankare has the right one

Some nice buildings and good height too, but lacks density. I give it a 7/10.
