Lonely Planet review for Museum of History & Art

A newly opened museum in the Kültür Park is the Museum of History & Art. Containing three separate departments, Sculpture, Ceramics, and Precious Artefacts, it gives a good overview of the region's artistic heritage. Look out in particular for the 2nd-century AD high relief of Poseidon and Demeter and the large hunting mosaic from Kadifekale. The museum has a small but well stocked bookshop with publications on Turkish art, cooking, and culture.
