Romantic Observatory Hill Picnic
Spend a romantic date under the stars, far above the city, viewing the Ankara skyline atop Observatory Hill (Rasathane Tepesi). You will share a light picnic under the beautiful light of the moon and stars, and enjoy the spectacular night view of the city.
- As the sun sets and the city lights below begin to shine, your hearts also start to flutter with excitement. Settling down on your own little spot on Observatory Hill, you share a modest but satisfying picnic. The conversation flows as smoothly as the light city breeze, accompanied by the sounds of your favorite tunes softly playing in the background.
- Later, you stare at the city lights that twinkle like the stars above. Holding hands, snuggling close for warmth, the bond between the two of you deepens. Far from the hustle and bustle of the city, you feel more in tune with each other.
- Photos? Share your moments and make them last, don’t forget to capture a selfie with the stunning city lights as your backdrop. A perfect way to commemorate your stunning night out.
Preparation steps:
- Following a few steps can enhance your date into a more memorable experience. Firstly, dress in warm clothes as it gets relatively cold in Ankara especially at night in November. Pack a warm blanket or quilt too, to lay on and to cozy up in.
- Secondly, picnic preparation is next. A simple selection of sandwiches, some fruits, and a thermos of hot coffee or tea are perfect for the occasion. Don’t forget some tissues and a waste bag to keep the environment clean.
- Lastly, consider bringing a portable music player to play some romantic tunes in the background. Also remember to fully charge your phones to capture some beautiful pictures of the night.

Some tips:
- Check the weather forecast beforehand. If there’s a chance of unfavourable weather, consider rescheduling. It is advisable to reach the hill just before sunset to find a nice spot. Safety is a priority, leaving the hill before it gets too late is a good idea.
- Pack everything compactly, so it isn't cumbersome carrying your stuff uphill and downhill. Having a small flashlight can come in handy, as it can get really dark up there.
- Make sure you leave no garbage behind, so others can enjoy the hill as much as you did. There are no facilities on the hill so plan accordingly.
