General Information about Ankara
Ankara is the second-largest city in Turkey after Istanbul. It is a commercial and industrial city with a population of around 4.5 million people and lots of historic Ottoman archaeological sites. The locals are very generous to tourists, and many of them speak English, although most people will try to speak English with you, a Turkish dictionary is always a good idea to bring with you when travelling to Turkey.
Ankara is an administrative centre and a university town. It has a continental climate with cold and snowy winters and hot, dry summers. Spring and Autumn are the wettest seasons, but with the annual rainfall amount of 410 mm, you are unlikely to get much wet during your trip to Ankara anyway.
