Etimesgut, Administrative district in Ankara Province, Turkey.

Etimesgut covers 273 square kilometers of land situated 25 kilometers from the center of Ankara, featuring large residential complexes and public housing projects.

The district's settlement history extends to 2000 BC, with evidence of Phrygian civilization from the 8th century BC and subsequent occupations by Lydians and Persians.

The district transformed from a refugee housing project in 1924 to accommodate Turkish people from Bulgaria into a modern suburban area with multiple residential neighborhoods.

The area contains essential facilities including a sugar factory, aviation authority headquarters at Etimesgut Airport, and expanding shopping centers like Metromall AVM.

The district hosts a planned security campus that will serve as headquarters for the Turkish National Intelligence Organization and Ministry of National Defence.
