Adventuring Ankara with HoiChing<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

It’s middle of May!<\/div>\n
\n

The weather is pretty good recently. The daytime is getting longer, the sun rises at 5 am in the morning and sets at 8 pm, That’s one of the reasons that I love May since it feels like you are having more time to use during the day and it’s not really hot yet.<\/p>\n

There are so many nice museums in Ankara, and as the weather is so nice, I decided to go to this outdoor museum. Alt\u0131nk\u00f6y A\u00e7\u0131k Hava M\u00fczesi (Golden Village open Air Museum) <\/strong>is an outdoor museum which shows the old village life in Turkey.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

The museum card is not available in Alt\u0131nk\u00f6y, <\/strong>the entrance fee was 5TL. Remember to ask for an English map when you get the ticket. It really helped a lot, since the signs are all in Turkish.<\/div>\n

There was also a big map in the village chamber.<\/div>\n

One of the reasons of going this museum was this suspension bridge. I saw it from instagram and it motivated me to visit this museum. As this is the suspension bridge, it’s not allowed to walk through. Still it’s a nice spot to take photos. I think it’s a pity that it can’t be walk through. Because the Open Air Museum is in a valley shape, and the bridge located in the middle, it would be nice if visitors can pass through and don’t have to walk down and up hill to travel from north to south part of the museum.<\/div>\n

The Wind Mill is one of the most recognising place in this museum and also a nice place for photos.<\/div>\n

It’s not just an ordinary museum, you can enjoy the nature here. Another reason to come here during spring is that the grass is green and you can see lots of different kinds of flowers. It’s a good idea to bring some food and spend time on the grass, chat and play with your loved ones!<\/div>\n
