The gray skies cleared after we toured the museum. wow! This was earlier... Wiki: Anıtkabir (literally, "memorial tomb") is the mausoleum of Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, the leader of the Turkish War of Independence and the founder and first President of the Republic of Turkey. It is located in Ankara and was designed by architects Professor Emin Onat and Assistant Professor Ahmet Orhan Arda, whose proposal beat 48 other entries from several countries in a competition held by the Turkish Government in 1941 for a "monumental tomb" for Atatürk.

There are also artifacts from the Phrygian civilization discovered on the Rasattepe (Observation Hill). We saw some items later that day at the museum about Anatolian civilizations.
