Battle of Ankara
Çubuk is a settlement that was established when the Turks invaded and took control of Anatolia. The district is located in the northeast of Ankara. Çubuk gained historical importance when Yıldırım Bayezid used Çubuk in the Battle of Ankara which was fought between Timur and the Ottoman Empire. Most of the villages that make up the district were formed by the remnants of armies defeated or left behind after the battle.
