Ulus, Historical neighborhood in central Ankara, Turkey.

The neighborhood extends across multiple streets connecting Atatürk Boulevard, Çankırı Street, Cumhuriyet Street, and Anafartalar Street at its center point.

The area transformed from a traditional Anatolian trade center called Taşhan in the 1880s to become a central district after the railroad connection in 1892.

The Museum of Anatolian Civilizations in Ulus contains collections of artifacts from various periods, illustrating regional development throughout different historical periods.

The district functions as a transportation center where all northbound public buses pass through, with numerous shops, banks, hotels, and commercial establishments.

The Monument of Republic, erected in 1927 in Ulus Square, appeared on Turkish banknotes during two different periods between 1939 and 1979.
