Turkish Language Immersion in Ankara
Our Turkish language immersion allows you plenty of time to discover Ankara.
TURKISH LANGUAGE IMMERSION IN ANKARA TURKEY
______________________________________________________________
Ankara (previously Angora) is the capital of Turkey and the country's second largest city after Istanbul. The city has a mean elevation of 900 metres (3,000 ft), and a population of 4,500,000.
Centrally located in Anatolia, Ankara is an important commercial and industrial city. It is the center of the Turkish Government, and houses all foreign embassies. It is an important crossroads of trade, strategically located at the center of Turkey's highway and railway networks, and serves as the marketing centre for the surrounding agricultural area.
Ankara is a very old city with various Hittite, Phrygian, Hellenistic, Roman, Byzantine, and Ottoman archaeological sites. The hill which overlooks the city is crowned by the ruins of the old castle, which adds to the picturesqueness of the view, but only a few historic structures surrounding the old citadel have survived to the present day. There are, however, many finely preserved remains of Hellenistic, Roman and Byzantine architecture, the most remarkable being the Temple of Augustus and Rome (20 BC) which is also known as the Monumentum Ancyranum.
