Ankara is the capital of the Republic of Turkey and the second largest city in the country — a modern metropolis of 5.7 million inhabitants on the Central Anatolian plateau whose planned Republican character (the city was designated capital in 1923 by Atatürk, replacing Constantinople/Istanbul, and rebuilt from a small town into a capital city almost from scratch in the 1920s–1930s) gives it a distinctive Modernist urban fabric quite unlike the Ottoman character of Istanbul. The Anıtkabir (the Mausoleum of Atatürk, 1944–1953, on a commanding hilltop site above the city, the most visited monument in Turkey) is the emotional and symbolic heart of the Turkish Republic — its processional Lion Road, the Hall of Honour and the attached Museum of the War of Independence receive millions of visitors annually.
Ankara's old city (the Ulus quarter and the ancient Ankara Citadel, the Hisar) preserves a remarkable archaeological and Ottoman heritage quite at odds with the city's modern capital character — the Ankara Citadel (Byzantine and Ottoman fortifications on a volcanic rock outcrop, the finest medieval urban fortress in central Anatolia), the Museum of Anatolian Civilisations (in the 15th-century Mahmut Paşa Bedesteni, the most important archaeological museum in Turkey after Istanbul, with the world's finest collection of Hittite, Phrygian, Lydian and Urartian artefacts) and the Temple of Augustus (a 1st-century CE Roman temple with the Res Gestae Divi Augusti — the political testament of the Emperor Augustus — inscribed on its walls, one of the most important Latin inscriptions in the world) give the capital a depth of pre-Republican history of extraordinary quality.
Anıtkabir — Atatürk's Mausoleum, Most Visited Monument in Turkey: The Anıtkabir (1944–1953) — the monumental mausoleum of Mustafa Kemal Atatürk on a hilltop above Ankara, its processional Lion Road, Hall of Honour and attached Museum of the War of Independence receiving over 10 million visitors annually — is the most visited monument in Turkey and the symbolic heart of the Turkish Republic. The changing of the guard ceremony and the museum collections (Atatürk's personal possessions, his yachts, cars and diplomatic gifts) give the most complete account of the founder of modern Turkey.
Museum of Anatolian Civilisations — World's Finest Hittite Collection: The Museum of Anatolian Civilisations (in the 15th-century Mahmut Paşa Bedesteni in the Ankara Citadel quarter) holds the finest collection of Hittite, Phrygian, Lydian and Urartian artefacts in the world — the Hittite reliefs, the Phrygian fibulae and the stunning Neolithic figurines from Çatalhöyük give it a claim to be the most important archaeological museum in Turkey after Istanbul, voted 'Best Museum in Europe' in 1997.
