Ankara, Busy political capital

[AMARANT]

That's what i was told whenever i told someone that it was on our trip plan to Turkey


but i was surprised, that it's such a beutiful city !!!!

we stayed there for around 2.5 days and they were not enough

here are some pics i took there, using a point-and-shoot camera:


Looks like a "Bowl" the embassy driver says :p
