The probably most interesting museum of Ankara shows valuable finds of the "Hittites", whose capital "Hattusa" was about 150 km to the east of Ankara. The wonderful "Anadolu Medeniyeteri Müzesi" should not be missed.
The "Etnografya Müzesi" shows the development of Turkish craftsmanship. In the splendid former city palace fine carpets, beautiful clothes and artistic woodwork are exhibited.
The "Museum of the National Assembly" honors the successes of the Turkish Republic since its founding in 1923. The building of architect Vedat Tek built in 1924 is also worth a visit because of the beautiful interior.
The Resim ve Heykel Museum shows art of painting and sculpture from the last 200 years. The museum organizes art exhibitions by international artists. The museum is also a center for art lectures, films, slide shows and workshops.
