One of the programs organized in Ankara was hosted by Gazi University TÖMER. As part of the program, 20 students from Senegal, South Africa, Tunisia, Albania, the Philippines and Pakistan were hosted in two private dormitories. Students who studied Turkish at Gazi University TÖMER in mornings, improved their Turkish skills.

Turkish Summer School students who got the opportunity to visit Ankara's historical, cultural and social destinations after lessons and to learn about the capital, visited places such as Atatürk's Monumental Tomb, Hamamönü, Eymir and Mogan lakes, Altınköy, Wonderland, Göksu Park, Mavigöl, and Ankara Castle. Students also participated in activities such as boat trips, archery and tile trainings, marbling show, baglama recital, picnics, and witnessed Turkey's natural beauty on the weekends in Cappadocia and Amasra.
