Best things to see in Adana

Adana is a city in southern Turkey, and several of its places to visit are museums devoted to the city's own people and history. The list below leans towards museums: a general museum, a cinema museum, a museum dedicated to the former prime minister Bülent Ecevit, and a coffee museum all sit alongside the Atatürk Evi, a house linked to Atatürk.

The city also has old bridge crossings and galleries worth a visit. Two entries below are listed under the name Taş Köprü, so they may refer to the same stone bridge or to two different sites; the details available for each are limited, so check locally before you go.

Practical notes

Opening hours, addresses and admission for these places were not confirmed for this guide, so check each one before you travel. Museums in Turkey often close on particular days, and the municipal museums may keep different hours from one another, so it is worth confirming the timetable for each site on the day you plan to visit.
