The city of Ankara is the second largest city in Turkey.

The Ankara Citadel can be seen from any point in Ankara and is the most famous spot in the city of Ankara.

The Ankara Citadel was the first town in Turkey. It is believed to date back to Hittite times which is around 3000 years ago.

The structure of the Citadel was designed by the Galatians, but, was completed by the Romans. As a result one can see the hints of Roman style in the citadel’s structure.

The Citadel is located on the top of the hill. The Citadel itself has a traditional architectural style and a large number of traditional fine arts.

The heritage of the city is now well preserved by the government.
