ASTI is
an acronym for Ankara Sehirlerarasi Terminal Isletmesi—so you
can see why everyone prefers to call
it ASTI (AHSH-tee;
or Terminal, TEHR-mee-NAHL).
ASTI is a mammoth building with hundreds
of buses roaring in and out
every hour on routes to all cities
and large towns
in Turkey.
Here's how to buy bus tickets
in Turkey.
Services include ticket counters,
snack stands, restaurants, pastry shops,
book stalls, telephone stations, bank ATMs,
toilets, showers, Internet cafes,
amusements,
a mescit (small
mosque),
and two Emanetçi (Left
Luggage/Baggage Check) counters (on
the lower level).
ASTI has its own
Ankaray underground
train station, with a covered passage
connecting the terminal and the station.
Dozens of companies operate frequent
buses to Istanbul.
