As Antalya was known in this period. This is one of the most beautiful monuments in Antalya
and is the leading gate into the Kaleici or old town of the city.
Before Antalya became one of Turkey's top summer resort towns
it was the ancient city of Attaleia founded during the Hellenistic period.
Here we can find many historical places from different periods and usually
Locals and tourists come to this area to hang out.
There are many adorable and colorful houses, nice restaurants, many souvenir shops and lively bars to have a good time.
This is a 14 meter tower dating back to the 17th century and served as a watch tower and lighthouse.
It's located at the side of Karaalioğlu Park and it's totally free to enter.
Antalya was one of the most important port cities on the Mediterranean coast during the Byzantine period.
This area is one of the most historical places in the city as it's been a port for centuries.
From here, different type of boat tours can be taken if you want to have a better glance of the coast.
Walk through its colorful streets where you'll find many shops and little bazaars.
This mosque was built in 1230 by the Anatolian Seljuk Sultan Aladdin Keykubad I.

Antalya is known for its lively environment at night. So don't miss the chance for experiencing it.
Konyaalti is another main area in Antalya where we can find good and large beaches and many hotels and restaurants.
To the history lovers, this is a museum that shouldn't be missed.
The entrance fee is only 45 Turkish Liras and the Museum Pass Turkey or Museum Pass "The Mediterranean"
are accepted. This museum is closed on Mondays.
The museum consists of three main halls. The hall of coin, small artifacts and icons.
The next one will be the Emperor's hall where we can admire sculptures of different Roman Emperors
mainly found in the ancient city of Perga, including the famous dancer sculpture
and to finalize in the sarcophagi hall.
These waterfalls are also a must see. This is the place where the waterfalls start and is called
Upper Duden falls. The entrance fee is only 5 Liras per person.
In this place we can also find little tables where we can enjoy a little day of picnic.
They have a few restaurants near the waterfalls and river and it's perfect for families.
There is also a little cave and I recommend entering since you can have a better look
of the place and see the waterfall from above.
They end where the waters of the lower Duden falls drop off a rocky cliff directly into the Mediterranean sea.
Basically, these were the places we were able to visit during our stay in Antalya.
