Usually it is quite hard to exchange one exotic currency for another in cash.
The safest way would be actually to visit the largest tourists attractions, as they often accept multiple currencies for exchange.
However, you will hardly get any good rate, hence I suggest you to use a credit card and take Lira home (if you are turkish) or keep it until your next trip to Turkey.
Many forms of change including Turkish Liras and Cyprusian Cypriots.

No. It has no value as an actual piece of money. The creation of YTL or New Turkish Lira made all previous Turkish Liras worthless as money. However, as a collector's item, it may be worth a little bit.
The currency used in Ankara is the same as the currency used all around Turkey. It is called the "Turkish Lira". Because the currency recently experienced a revaluation and it is now called the "New Turkish Lira".The currency in Turkey is the Turkish lira.

You can use USD Dollars, Euros and Turkish lira, nowadays it's very close to USD. (1 Lira = 1.2 Dollars) I suggest you to use Turkish Liras, it would be more cheaper. For example, you wanted to buy a picture. Seller says "1 euro or 1 lira". If you give him 1 Euro, you will be given 1.8 Liras. But if you give 1 lira, you will save 0,8 liras :) That was just an example.
