  • Newcomer Broschuere 2020-21
    Privatschule der Deutschen Botschaft Ankara Ernst-Reuter-Schule NEWCOMERBROSCHÜRE 2020-2021 HERZLICH WILLKOMMEN IN ANKARA Hoş Geldiniz! Ankara - Hauptstadt der modernen Türkei Ankara, seit dem 13. Oktober 1923 die Hauptstadt der Türkei, liegt in Zentralanatoli- en. Historisch bekannt als Angora, ist Ankara heute die zweitgrößte Stadt der Türkei mit einer Bevölkerungszahl von ca. 5,4 Millionen. Im Jahr 1923 hatte Ankara etwa 30.000 Einwohner, 50 Jahre später 1,5 Mio. 1980 wurden 2,3 Mio. Einwohner gezählt. Im Jahr 2008 zählte die Stadt 4 Mio. Einwohner. Keine Stadtverwaltung hätte bei diesem Wachstum die Chance, im Bereich der Infra- struktur (Straßenbau, Strom-und Wasserversorgung etc.) mit dieser Entwicklung Schritt zu halten. Die Wasserversorgung stellt für die Millionenstadt mit halbtrocke- nem Kontinentalklima das schwierigste Problem dar, das aber durch das Anlegen von Stauseen, die zugleich heute auch Naherholungsgebiete sind, gelöst werden konnte. Ankara erstreckt sich über viele Hügel und Berge, tiefe, schluchtartige Täler gliedern das Stadtbild. Die Hauptstadt der Türkei liegt auf einer Höhe zwischen 850 m und 1200 m, im Bereich der Wasserscheide des südlich gelegenen Elma Daği. In Ankara herrscht kontinentales Klima vor mit heißen, trockenen Sommern (Tempe- raturwerte von 35-40°C, der Temperaturdurchschnitt liegt bei 30°C) und kalten Win- tern mit Schneefall (Temperaturen im Minusgradbereich können sogar bis -20°C in den Keller gehen, aber der Durchschnittswert liegt bei -4°C). Regenfälle gibt es meist im Frühjahr oder Herbst. Der Flughafen ESB findet sich im Norden der Stadt, ca. 25 km von der ERS, der Stadtteil Ulus ist das historische Zentrum, in dem die Zitadelle zu finden ist.
