Romantic Spots for a Night Out in Ankara, Turkey
Ankara may not be known for its romanticism like Paris, but it does have its fair share of romantic spots where couples can enjoy the sunset, share a meal and a few glasses of wine, or just stroll through the park hand in hand. Check out our list of the most romantic Ankara activities.
1. Çengelhan Brasserie
Brasserie, Turkish
2. And Cafe
Cafe, Turkish
3. Cafemiz
There’s something very kitsch about this café as it’s decked out in almost rococo elements, with floral patterns, chandeliers, regal furniture, and ornate mirrors. But it’s exactly this Valentine’s Day-inspired look that makes Cafemiz a romantic place, especially the beautiful garden perfect for a candlelit dinner in the summer breeze.

5. Botanik Parkı
Park
One of Ankara’s lesser-known parks is actually one of its most beautiful, with plenty of hidden corners and park benches where you can sit and stare into each other’s eyes. In the evening, the lights of Atakule light up the park for quite a romantic atmosphere that turns a stroll into a memorable event.

8. Ankara Kalesi
Even though the Ankara Castle is one of the most popular tourist sights in Ankara, it also happens to be one of the best places to watch the sun while it sets over the city. With its historic charm, including the rows of Ottoman houses below, watch Ankara’s colors change beautifully as the sun begins to disappear.
