We begin our tour by visiting Ankara Castle, which dates back to the Hittite period and is the most dominant point of Ankara. We recommend that you see this historical structure, which we will visit both inside and outside the castle. Then, we move to the Museum of Anatolian Civilizations, which is the current state of the historic Mahmut Pasha and Kurşunlu Inn, located near the outer walls of the castle. In this museum, you can see artifacts belonging to all civilizations that lived in Anatolia from the Paleolithic Age to the Ottoman Period. With its unique collections, it is among the world's leading museums. Then we visit the Ankara Ethnography Museum, which housed the remains of Gazi Mustafa Kemal Atatürk from 1938 to 1953. Here, materials collected from various regions of Turkish art from the Seljuk period to the present are exhibited. In the continuation of our tour, after seeing the Ulus Victory Monument in Ulus Square, we go to the 1st Parliament building, which is also used today as the War of Independence Museum. This parliament building is the first and important parliament where our Republic was proclaimed, the National Anthem was adopted, Ankara became the capital, and Gazi Mustafa Kemal Atatürk was elected President, between April 23, 1920 and October 15, 1924. Then we go to the 2nd Grand National Assembly Building of Turkey, built in 1923 by architect Vedat Tek, which is now used as the Republic Museum. We tour this special and important museum, an architectural marvel in which our Republic developed and Atatürk's principles and revolutions were carried out between 1924 and 1960. Then we proceed to have lunch.
