Take a walk through history by visiting the historic Anıtkabir, the final resting place of Mustafa Kemal Atatürk in Ankara. This date idea is perfect for the intellectual couple who loves exploring and learning new things.
- Start your date at the Anıtkabir. It's a beautiful, serene place which will offer you the chance to learn more about Turkish history and culture. Take a peaceful walk and explore the different sections of the mausoleum, such as the ceremonial plaza, the tower restaurants, and the museum.
- Next, take the opportunity to tour the museum housed inside, where you can dive deep into Turkey's past and gain a greater understanding of its history. Spend some time reflecting on its collections and discussing them between you.
- Finish your visit by sitting in the tranquil gardens surrounding the mausoleum, and enjoy each other's company as you take in the historical surroundings. It's a wonderfully calm and peaceful end to a stimulating intellectual date.
Preparation steps:
- Before you head off, make sure you are dressed comfortably, with plenty of layers to account for the November chill. Read up a bit on the history of Turkey and Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, so you can appreciate the significance of Anıtkabir while you're there.
- If the weather forecast is good, don't forget to bring a camera to capture the beautiful architecture and landscape of the mausoleum. If it's windy, you might want to bring a hat or scarf.
- Lastly, though Anıtkabir has no admission fee, remember to bring some change for donation boxes or occasional free souvenir stalls.
