Kalecik Castle - Çankırı Cd. 78. Km

One of the beautiful places where we do a bicycle tour every few months, it is difficult to find the castle open.You can watch it on youtube yusuf murat channel.

Very neglected, they built a stone wall under the name of restoration.

There is a beautiful view of the city from above.

Kalecik is one of the oldest districts of Ankara, although it is open to research, it is older than Ankara. It is a cute town with a cute village city atmosphere. The castle, from which it takes its name, is the most important symbol of the city. Kalecik donuts, world-famous kalecik black grape, and kalecik quince are a few features of the district. The Kızılırmak passes through the district and has a different beauty. You can always spend time.

Its height, historical texture and view are worth seeing. The road leading to the castle is so narrow and full of bends that people experience incredible adrenaline both when ascending and descending :) I prayed that there would be no cars in front of me when ascending and descending. If you are afraid of cliffs and winding roads, definitely leave the car below and walk out. When the bad roads are added, it fully fits the concept of Difficult Roads. When I went to Kalecik, there was no point I did not visit, the roads were terrible. The municipality needs to get their hands on the roads as soon as possible. Let's go inside the castle. When you go up to the castle, a wonderful view and an oxygen tank await you. There are excavation sites inside, but it looks like they dug it up and left it to its fate. The excavation work should be finished as soon as possible and it should be brought to tourism. A few words to our people; the inside of the castle is not passed through the garbage. There are liquor bottles everywhere. Blessed people! You ate, drank, what do you leave your trash!!?? Go throw it in the trash!!

The view of the castle is truly magnificent. You can see the goalkeeper from start to finish, there is a place to sit inside, when you touch the stones of the castle, you go back 100 years, only the castle was very neglected, it was excavated, they left it like that, very dirty beer bottles, garbage, walking around, don't go to the castle by car, I went out ? if the door was closed, the car would stay there because there is an area to turn the car No, there is only a large area inside the castle. But there is no warning , I am very sorry that such a historical castle is neglected , frankly we need to protect such values ​​, maybe the municipality will hear our voice from here .
