Really great looking city. I'd certainly like to travel to Turkey some day and Ankara would be right at the top of my list (tied with Istanbul) for places to visit there.

 Thanks  . Actually Ankara is not a top tourist destination, when compared with other cities in Turkey, as there are only a few touristic destinations grouped around old city of Ankara..So I guess it is time to have a look to the old historical district of Ankara.. The Old City..  The Citadel with the old houses of Ankara..  The Citadel from back.. Unfortunately other side of citadel still holds bad looking non-historical old houses, but there are projects of clearing them.  Some historical buildings in Ulus (Historical District) built at the first years of republic. The First Parliament of Republic of Turkey (It was a primary school actually, then converted into parliament in the independence war)      The Second Parliament      Arts Museum   Etnography Museum

Ankara looks like a great city! The pictures of the lake and parks remind me a bit of Minneapolis (and the Karem Mall looks like Mall of America's rotunda). I really like the red tile roofs shown in your very first photo, plus the nice blend of older and newer architecture. I've never been to Turkey, but some friends of mine went several years ago and they had a great time! Its on my list (along with dozens of other places)
