== Ani ==
Quick update - I'm no real hitch'er or wiki'er, but I couldn't believe there was nothing on Ani for Kars, so here it is (feel free to edit). First, finding Ani on the map: it's 45 km due east of Kars (Ani didn't come up in Google Maps for me - it's in the direction of Subatan). It's on the Armenian border. There's one road out there, so it's pretty straight forward - I just walked out of town and got picked up pretty quick. Coming back was easy too - just don't be the last one out!
Kars
,no edit summary
'''Kars''', in north-eastern [[Turkey]], is the capital and largest city of the [[Kars province]] in [[Eastern Anatolia]]. The city lies within 70km of the Armenian border, which is closed and is the largest city in range of the Georgia border, which is open.
== Hitching out ==
The old road to Erzurum starts right in the city center, you can walk there. It's not a main road any more, so there is only a local traffic, but you can still hitch a ride because after a few kilometres, the road passes very close to the main road (you can see it) and you can just walk 200m over the fields.
=== East towards Ani ===
Ani is 45 km due east of Kars and located on the Armenian border (which is closed). You can get a lift by walking out of town and thumbing.
