About FTZ Alışveriş Merkezi

FTZ AVM is a compact neighbourhood shopping centre on Fatih Caddesi in the Kalaba area of Keçiören, the large residential district north of central Ankara. It opened in 2001, and the centre presents itself as a homely local meeting point for Keçiören residents, with a refreshed interior and a growing line-up of brands. According to the centre's own introduction, it combines a supermarket of about 1,200 square metres, a food court of about 1,500 square metres, cafés and restaurants, a children's play area of around 300 square metres, cinema screens and space for events. Directories list some 22 brands across a range of categories. Shops trade over several levels, from a basement floor to a second floor where an outlet store selling discounted sportswear and denim brands opened beside the play area. Seasonal pop-up sales, such as carpet festivals, are held in the building. Practical notes: the centre's social account gives opening hours of 10:00 to 22:00 on weekdays and weekends. Visitor reviews describe it as a small mall on the main road, opposite the Keçiören waterfalls, with a petrol station next door and parking available. It makes an easy stop for groceries, family shopping or a meal if you are visiting the parks and promenades along this part of Keçiören.
