Today is our last day in Ankara, so we head out to Ankara Castle. Near the castle gate there are plenty of shops selling spices, souvenirs, wool and traditional products. The Erimtan Archaeology and Arts Museum is located across the road from the main entrance of the castle.
The foundations of the Ankara castle and citadel were laid by the Galatians but completed by the Romans. The Byzantines and Seljuks made additional changes, restoration and further additions to the castle or citadel. The area both inside, and surrounding the castle, is the oldest part of Ankara. If you look out over the castle walls you can see examples of old and unrestored houses in the streets below. Within the castle area much of the traditional architecture has benefitted from restoration and as you walk up to the inner castle you will see some examples of fine architecture. Along the way there are plenty of places to stop and have a hot drink as well as a number of restaurants.
