Antalya City Guide & Information
The Antalya Region, offering all the mysticism of past in our day, is now called the "Turkish Riviera" due to its archaeological and natural beauties. Antalya is the place where sea, sun, history and nature constitute a perfect harmony and which also includes the most beautiful and clearest coast along the Medditerranean. The city still preserves its importance as a centre throughout history in the south coast of the country, in addition to its wonderful natural beauties. The mythological city which housed the Gods and Goddesses now exhibits all its secrets and marvels to mankind.
The city of Antalya was founded in the 2nd century B.C. by Attalus, the King of Pergamon. Antalya is the pearl of Mediterranean region. It's a rich land of history with its historical sites, which had been home for several civilizations and a heaven of sea & sun with its unique coastline and coastal towns (Alanya, Side Aspendos, Perge, Kemer, Phaselis, Termessos...) Places of interest to see in Antalya are the fine museum of archaeology, the broken minaret mosque which had also been a church, Hadrian's Gate and the antique Roman Harbor. No stay is complete without a wander through old "Kaleici" (Old quarter), with its narrow winding streets, old Ottoman houses and fine restaurants and souvenir shops. Most of the hotels featured are located in "Kaleici" and are restored half-timber houses.
