Altınköy Açık Hava Müzesi, situated in the Altındağ district of Ankara, offers a unique opportunity to experience the rural life of Turkey. The museum was built by the Altındağ Municipality to highlight the importance of preserving the culture and traditions of villages that are at risk of disappearing due to rapid urbanization.
The Altınköy Açık Hava Müzesi, spread over a 500-decare land, is a faithful representation of the village architecture, traditions, and culture of the 1930-1950s. It includes a village coffee house, a mayor's office, barns, gardens, and traditional Turkish village houses, all designed to reflect the rural life of that era.
