Ankara Rahmi M. Koç Müzesi
An industry and transport museum housed in Çengelhan, a 16th-century caravanserai, with vintage cars, locomotives and scientific instruments.
The museum was founded by the Koç Group of Turkey. Its home is the restored Çengelhan, a caravanserai completed in 1522 at the foot of the Citadel, and its stone arcaded courtyard is worth a look in itself. The collection covers vintage cars and motorcycles, navigation and aviation models, steam engines, medical and scientific instruments, toys and communication equipment. The central atrium recreates old shops and workshops, making it ideal for families and machinery enthusiasts. Admission is about 10 euros, and the museum has a well-regarded restaurant.
