Anadolu Medeniyetleri Muzesi

This fascinating museum contains over 200,000 historic pieces of which only a fraction can be displayed at one time. Exhibits include Early Bronze Age statues and Neolithic wall paintings.

Reviewed By JaneE604 - New York City, United States

This is an outstanding museum, one of the best I have ever visited. The exhibits are fascinating and particularly well curated. This should be on everyone's "must see list" when in Turkey. I visited Ankara specifically to see this place and it was absolutely worth the trip. A circuit covers the history of Anatolia from the Paleolithic era through to the Uratians documented with amazing artifacts. Don't miss it! My only (small) compliant is that a few items were missing leaving an empty stand with the identity card still beside it. I expect they were on loan to other museums but it would have been nice to have some explanation provided.

Ethnography Museum

This museum houses a rich collection of folkloric artifacts, and was the first resting place of Ataturk until the completion of his mausoleum in 1953.

Reviewed By 1Travelmum - Stafford, United States

This is a beautiful smallish museum displaying clothing, decorative objects and recreated rooms. There is useful English signage to help explain more about the objects as well as the customs in which they are used. There is parking available at the next door Museum of Art and Sculpture.
