A small but well preserved site. In Ankara, the best place to see Roman ruins. It also has an interesting view of the city and makes for a nice place to walk if the weather is good.

It cost 40lyras to get in and it’s quite pretty, you can tour it fast but it’s still a nice piece of history!

This is a cute and cheap stop in ankara with so many headstones and a view on what used to be a roman bath. I would say it takes you maximum an hour to tour the place, but it is close by to other attractions and for only 20 lira, so definitely worth a visit.

The site has improved during the past couple of years, and there seems to be a Visor Centre/ Exhibit of sorts being built.

My recommendations for this site would be to improve customer relations. Being shouted at by your door staff doesn't really endear me to continue brining custom to this site.
Also, I understand some staff have a snooze behind the trees, fair play to them, but it doesn't inspire me with confidence when I See a half dozen members of staff sleeping under the trees next to displays. It completely lacks professionalism.

Have a bit more info for the displays. Instead of saying "Roman Gravestone" have something describing what's said on the gravestone, if possible give us more info.

There's a lot of potential for this site to be a great Historical Attraction, however they need to take customer relations more seriously and not having their staff having a kip during broad daylight.

I absolutely loved this place. It’s a large space where you can walk around the ruins of the baths complex and they have a huge collection of grave stones in multiple languages from multiple centuries (I realize not everyone is into that but I am!). Plus a variety of other statues, sarcophagi, and other interesting things to look at. Also great views of the city. For the price it’s definitely worth a visit.

For a mere 20 Turkish lira (July 2022) you can experience these Roman ruins of the ancient bathhouse and sports area. It's packed with pieces of columns and gravestones from Roman times, Ottoman times and more including stones with Hebrew writing, Greek and Roman. The 2 gates on a quiet road were locked but the main entrance is on the other side on a more major road. WCs and tree shaded benches available.

Plenty of Roman artefacts on a backdrop of Ankara’s urban landscape. Great view points constructed over the Roman baths and a good amount of explanatory signs. Was surprised to see only one more visitor during an hour spent there. The visit is definitely worth a few liras (less that 10) I paid. In the UK, a visit to such Roman baths would cost times more...

Small open air museum. It can be seen in about an hour. The center feature is a Roman bath. It can be viewed from four sides. There is also a tomb and a collection of headstones and other stone objects. Good value for the 7 lira entry fee.
