Kavaklıdere at a glance
Kavaklıdere, in the Çankaya district, is one of Ankara's liveliest and most upmarket neighbourhoods. Tunalı Hilmi Avenue, with its shops, cafés and restaurants, forms its heart, while Kuğulu Park, the small "swan park", has become a much-loved local landmark. Several embassies, hotels and office buildings are nearby, and the streets stay busy well into the evening.
Traffic on Tunalı Hilmi and the surrounding side streets is heavy and parking is limited. Your driver will drop you at the hotel entrance or, where that is not possible, at the closest accessible point. In your booking notes, write the name of the hotel or apartment building together with its side street, not just the main avenue, so the right entrance is easy to find.
