Ankara ring highway.

Please excuse the banners and little colorful flags it was during elections and they got in the way of some pictures.

never been there but I always thought that Ankara is a dreary city but many people actually like Ankara and it looks quiet glamour in your pics. Thanks for sharing

As seen in these photos, Ankara becomes quiet on summer months.

Great city, but doesn't seem like the motorways have a lot of traffic on them.

You should go! I like it a lot. A lot of people said I was wasting my time going there and that it was boring but I thought it was very lively and the city was really really great. I want to go back now.

It's urban showcase... And those photos are awfully old.


Anyways, best Ankara thread ever! Thanks
