Best time to visit Ankara
Many tourists prefer warm, non-rainy weather when visiting a new city, however, there is something truly magical about waking up to snow, and piling on layers of clothing before you venture out for your day of sightseeing. Add a steaming cup of Turkish Apple tea to that and you’re good to go! The snowy cold seasons in Ankara falls over the months of December and January.
That said, the most popular time to visit this beautiful city is over the warmer, dry months of the year. In Ankara, this is between May and October. During this time the temperatures average between 22 and 27 degrees Celsius, and there are plenty of activities to do. Consider a walking tour of the city with an English tour guide, or hiring a bicycle for a ride in Eymir Park.

Ankara is the largest city in Turkey, and is a great combination of old and new. It has a strong and rich story to tell visitors about the foundations of the country, and yet also offers a free-spirited, youthful outlook on life.
Ankara’s ties go back as far as the 20th century, with the Ottoman leader at the time, Mustafa Kemal Ataturk naming Ankara its capital in 1923. So, it is this city that the Turkey that we know today was built from. Locals recommend that you visit the Ataturk Mausoleum and get a glimpse of the history surrounding this great city.
