Roman theatre of Ankara, Roman theatre ruins in Ulus district, Turkey.
The Roman theatre features two vaulted passages leading to a central orchestra area measuring 13 meters in diameter with stone seating sections.
Built during the second century CE, the theatre structure underwent modifications when sections were later incorporated into the construction of a fortress.
The theatre served as a performance venue for the Dionysiac Artists Guild, hosting festivals and ceremonies during the Roman period in Ankara.
Visitors can observe the theatre remains from Hisar Parkı street, as the archaeological site maintains restricted public access for preservation purposes.
Archaeological excavations at the site revealed fragments of Emperor Hadrian statues and decorative elements that document the architectural grandeur of ancient Ankara.
