Gazi Ahmet Muhtar Paşa Kultur Evi

One of Kars' most attractive old homes hosts a beautifully presented but all-in-Turkish introduction to Gazi Ahmet Muhtar Paşa, a flamboyantly moustachioed Ottoman commander who played a key role in the 1877 Turko-Russian war. If you don't understand the historical panels about his achievements you could simply sit for a selfie with his medal-spangled waxwork mannequin.
