Ankara, the vibrant capital city of Turkey, is a treasure trove of history and culture. Nestled in the heart of Anatolia, this enchanting city offers a captivating blend of ancient wonders and modern marvels. Adana, located nearby, serves as a bridge connecting Ankara to the rest of Turkey. As you traverse this path, you'll discover the splendorous swords adorned with gold, silver, lapis lazuli, and obsidian that once belonged to mighty kings - an awe-inspiring glimpse into the royal treasures of old. In Ankara itself lies Kocatepe Camii Mosque; its grandeur stands as a testament to both human craftsmanship and our connection to something greater than ourselves – the universe. This magnificent structure reflects the rich heritage not only but also Asia Minor and Eurasia as a whole. Venturing beyond urban landscapes reveals life in quaint villages where time seems to stand still. Life In The Village_14 showcases the simplicity and beauty found amidst nature's embrace – a reminder that even in bustling cities like Ankara, tranquility can be discovered just around the corner. Ataturk Statue - Victory Monument proudly watches over Ankara's streetscape. A symbol of triumph and progress for Turkey's people who hold their great leader dear in their hearts. Delving further back into history brings us face-to-face with Hittite art represented by Bull (2500-2000 BC). This sculpture embodies strength and power while offering insight into ancient civilizations that once thrived on these lands. The walls of Augusteum bear witness to Res Gestae Divi Augusti (Deeds of Divine Augustus), etched forevermore within its stone confines. These engravings tell tales from centuries past when empires rose and fell upon these very grounds – an enduring legacy etched into Ankara's soul. Finally, gazing upon The Principal Ruins from 1863 lithographs grants us an exquisite view of the Temple of Augustus.
