Ankara by car
Ankara governs from the middle of the Anatolian plateau, ringed by dry steppe and filled with ministries, embassies and universities. Winters turn genuinely cold and snowy, which changes how the highland approaches feel between December and March.
Driving in Ankara
Ankara is reached by O-20 ring road, O-4, D200 and D750. Parking in the centre is paid and marked by zone.
From the airport without a car
Ankara Esenboğa Airport has no metro link, and none is planned. EGO bus route 442 leaves from the arrivals level for Kızılay, while Havaş and Ankara Air coaches also run to Kızılay, with Havaş serving the main AŞTİ terminal too.
