Make this print opens the generator on a 600 m square around the landmark. Buildings print at close to true scale, so the landmark grows with the print size.

About Atakule
Atakule, in central Ankara, Türkiye, is a 125 m (410 ft) tower used for communications and observation, and it ranks among the city's primary landmarks. It stands in Çankaya, a district built on a hill, so on clear days people can see it from nearly every part of the city. Prime Minister Turgut Özal opened it on October 13, 1989.
Construction took place between 1987 and 1989, to a design by Ragıp Buluç. An open terrace and a rotating restaurant called Sevilla fill the top section, and Sevilla turns through 360 degrees every hour. Above Sevilla is a second restaurant, Dome, which stays still and sits directly under the cupola, and a café named UFO is under the terrace. A shopping mall and a number of restaurants occupy the lower structures.
The Turkish word ata translates as ancestor, or father in Old Turkic, and it is a common nickname for Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, founder of the republic and its first president; kule means tower. The Atrium shopping mall next to the tower opened on the same day, as the first modern mall in Ankara. It was later demolished and rebuilt, and it reopened on October 29, 2018.
