    Rahmi Koç Museum Ankara is a scaled down replica of the one in Istanbul. Cars, old radios, old bicycles, you name it. Personally, I consider these two museums one of the best in Europe, in their genre. This museum must be visited. It is located in the vicinity of the historical Ankara Kalesi. Next to the museum is another compact but very good private museum, Erimtan. If you walk 500mt down, you will have the opportunity to visit the crown jewel, Anadolu Medeniyetleri müzesi, (Anatolian Civilizations Muuseum). I will not explicitly list all item groups displayed at RMK museum, only to mention my favorites: The smiling Buddha figures collection of late Turkish comedian Zeki Alasya, an exceptional display of small Buddhas, primarily of ivory, and ceramics. I have never encountered a similar collection previously anywhere. Vintage radios, specifically two models, a Zenith Trans-Oceanic and a National. I have a sentimental connection to these because same models exist at my home, a souvenir of my late father. Zenith Trans-Oceanic was the royalty of short wave radios. It was manufactured by Zenith Electronics, from 1941 till 1979. During those years Zenith was a USA company, which was purchased by LG Electronics of South Korea in 1999. Next to RMK Museum, you can enjoy a good coffee and sweets at Divan Patisserie.

    One of the best museums in Ankara. Based around the collection of one of the greatest Turkish industrialists, you can find everything here from classic cars over steam-driven machinery and airplanes to technology to art to clothing to examples of life and trade in Turkey through the ages. A nominal fee is charged for entry, but it is well worth it. Be sure to schedule several hours to give the three-building collection its due. Children will enjoy it. It is the perfect rainy day activity, and is excellent on sunny days, as well.

    30 TL to enter but it's worth every penny. You'll need at least 3 hours to see all 4 floors. It's truly worth the visit.

    Cool technology and industry museum in Ankara based across three buildings. Perfect for family outings, especially with kids. Eclectic mix of classic cars, steam engines, airplanes, technology,...etc, plan at least half a day to see it properly without rushing through.

    It's simply great place to visit - lots of different models and original mechanisms all over the world, you'll find miniaturized ships and planes, rarity cars like Ford T or Messerschmitt KR200, the historical background of the museum building is also affected telling visitors the story of handicrafts in Ottoman Empire. The whole visit could take up to few hours because exposition is quite huge, but it's really worth it.

    I really loved the musum. As someone interested in history and the people, it gave me really good glimpse into the life and profession of the Turkish people in the past century. The other part of the musum, which included the collection of many things, from model trains and model ships, to hunting gear, submarine and ship parts, etc, was really interesting as well. I spend more than two hours there, and I think I should've spent more.

    It’s a very big museum with variety of antique pieces that you only can appreciate. We came early at the opening hours so it wasn’t that crowded and it took more than 2 hours to finish it all. They don’t have parking area but there are some auto parks nearby. They also have clean 🚾

    The Museum is located in the center of Ankara and is a great place to learn about transportation, industry, and communication through its wide range of vintage vehicles, interactive displays, and educational exhibits.

    A fascinating and eclectic museum. You can easily spend three hours here. I liked the classic cars. Also the vintage TVs, computers, consoles and VCRs. If you stay at the hotel next door you get free admission.

    The museum building's interior is beautiful. It was a historical Ottoman inn (similar to Kızlarağası Inn in Kemeraltı Izmir). Compared to the Istanbul Museum, this place presents smaller exhibits. There are fewer machines and large transport items. However, the number of items and variety of collections is enormous. It is worth visiting this admirable museum.
