Yenimahalle, Administrative district in Ankara, Turkey.
Yenimahalle is an administrative district in Ankara that combines residential neighborhoods with schools, shopping centers, and office buildings spread across the area. The district mixes older housing stock with newer apartment complexes and incorporates parks and open spaces throughout.
The district began developing in the late 1940s when the government set it aside for housing projects serving civil servants and workers. Subsequent decades saw the addition of schools, roads, and infrastructure to support the growing population living there.
Local markets and neighborhood gathering places shape everyday life in the district, where residents shop and interact according to long-standing Turkish community traditions. Street food vendors and family-run shops reinforce these social bonds that define the character of the area.
The OSTIM Industrial Complex on the district's edge offers employment for many residents and is accessible by public transportation. Metro connections link the area efficiently to central Ankara and other parts of the city.
Two of Ankara's major football clubs play and train within the district, competing intensely for local support over many decades. This sporting rivalry has become embedded in the district's identity and draws fans from across the city.
