Opening of the Tolumnat Cave in Ankara
The Tolumnat Cave, discovered about 30 years ago during excavation operations for the construction of the Ankara ring road in the Gölbaşı region, has started welcoming visitors after the necessary arrangements were made.
Methat Kara, a retired teacher who came to visit the cave, expressed his delight at the work done there. Kara congratulated those who worked tirelessly, stating: "This is a living cave with a history of 5 million years. Excavations are still ongoing. We also see incredible landscapes. It has truly been excellent service."
The entrance fee to the cave, where restoration work has been completed by the Gölbaşı Municipality, is set at 30 lira for adults and 15 lira for students. Veterans, martyrs' families, and individuals aged 0 to 6 will have free access to visit the cave.
