EDITORS COMMENTS
Ankara, the capital city of Turkey, proudly showcases its blend of historical and modern charm in this image of The New Town. Dating back to 1929, this area was developed under the leadership of Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, the founder of modern Turkey, with a vision to create a modern and European-influenced urban center. The photograph presents a stunning panorama of the New Town, with its neatly aligned, contemporary houses standing proudly against the backdrop of the ancient Angora Castle. The houses, built in the 1920s and 1930s, represent a significant departure from the traditional Turkish architecture, reflecting the country's modernization efforts. Their clean lines, symmetrical designs, and red-tiled roofs exude an air of sophistication and progress. Despite the modernity of the New Town, the historical significance of Ankara is not lost. The ancient Angora Castle, a remnant of the city's rich history, looms in the distance, a testament to the layers of time and culture that have shaped this vibrant city. The castle, originally built in the Hittite period, has undergone numerous transformations throughout history, including serving as a Byzantine fortress and an Ottoman palace. The New Town of Ankara is a living embodiment of Turkey's complex and fascinating history. It stands as a symbol of the country's commitment to modernization while preserving its rich cultural heritage. This photograph offers a glimpse into the unique blend of history and modernity that makes Ankara such a captivating destination.
