Ankara is a beautiful city but i think its a little bit boring. Anıtkabir was a must seen place i think my experience was really emotional. Tunalı was a good place. I tried cocktails at pint and they were delicious
Posted: August 26, 2024Experienced: July, 2024The city was amazing and beautiful and the people were friendly with tourists. I reserved a really cheap hotel because I had little budget, but despite the prices it was really great and I also met a new friend, that by my solo trip, I think that was amazing;)
Posted: April 19, 2024Ankara has become an indispensable city for me because my cousin lives there, and I didn't have to pay any fees to stay. It's a city steeped in history, especially in Ulus. The Parliament and Anıtkabir are definitely must-see places. The locations where the Battle of Sakarya took place are also noteworthy. Before climbing Ankara Castle, there are many museums you can visit. There are many famous streets like Kızılay and Tunalı, all of which you can explore on foot. Walking through the streets is the most beautiful way to understand a city. :)

As someone living in Ankara, I’d say the city is generally safe, especially in central areas like Kızılay, Çankaya, and Bahçelievler. Public transportation is reliable, and there’s a visible police presence in busy districts. However, like any major city, there are areas that feel less secure, especially late at night. I usually stay cautious in quieter streets and avoid isolated places after dark.

I wouldn't say it's a dangerous city, but you still need to be careful. The probability of something happening to you is low, but not impossible. Just like the rest of the world. People are helpful. Public transportation is safe. Police are usually always present in crowded places.
