Ankara, the capital of Turkey, sits at the centre of Central Anatolia on a broad steppe plateau. With licence-plate code 06, about 5.3 million residents and 25 districts, it is one of the country's most populous cities. Anıtkabir, the mausoleum of Atatürk, the historic Ankara Castle, the Kızılay and Ulus squares and the Museum of Anatolian Civilizations are among its landmarks. Government institutions, universities, the defence industry and services form the backbone of the economy.

As a large metropolitan area, Ankara sees dense traffic, especially at rush hour and along its main boulevards. Winters in this continental climate are cold and snowy, and fog or snow around Esenboğa Airport can occasionally affect flights. Motorways and highways towards Istanbul, Konya, Samsun and Adana are also closely watched in winter.
