Kaleici Old Town
No. 11 of Night Attractions in Türkiye

Kaleici Old Town

7.2
4.9/5
118 reviews
Kaleici Old Town is located in the city center of Antalya and has a history of over 2,000 years. It has been ruled by various civilizations, including Ancient Greece, Ancient Rome, the Byzantine Empire, the Seljuk Empire, and the Ottoman Empire, with its street layout and architectural style bearing the marks of these different civilizations. Hadrian's Gate is the iconic entrance to Kaleici Old Town, built to commemorate the visit of the Roman Emperor Hadrian. The three marble arches are flanked by towers, and the cobblestone pavement beneath the gate still clearly shows the ruts and hoof prints from ancient times. After passing through the gate, Ottoman-style stone houses with red roofs and white walls are scattered along the slopes, and narrow alleys wind upwards, with mosque domes and minarets visible from time to time. The Tekeli Mehmet Pasha Mosque in the district, built in the 17th century, features typical Ottoman architectural style; the clock tower with a pentagonal base stands on the ancient city walls, with its foundation dating back to the Byzantine period and the upper clock tower added later, making it one of the striking landmarks of Kaleici Old Town today. The Old Roman Harbor is located at the southern end of the district and was once an important maritime transport hub in the Eastern Mediterranean. Today, it is docked with yachts and fishing boats, and the azure harbor water and layers of red roofs form a classic scene of Antalya. The alleys in the northern part of the old town are perfect for a quiet stroll, where you can see old houses covered in vines and scattered craft shops along the way. Restaurants and cafes are densely distributed along the main street, where you can taste local flavors such as Mediterranean grilled fish, or browse shops for handicrafts like carpets and ceramics.Antalya · 208m from downtown
Hadrian's Gate

Hadrian's Gate

4.5/5
102 reviews
Hadrian's Gate is the main gate of the ancient city of Kaleici, the old town of Antalya, built to commemorate the visit of the Roman Emperor Hadrian around 130 AD, and was later incorporated into the wall system surrounding the ancient city and the harbor, becoming a gate that still remains on the ancient city walls today. The entire gate structure is built of white marble with granite columns. Of the three arches, the middle one is slightly higher and wider. The arches and lintels are decorated with floral and rosette reliefs, and the cornice is adorned with lion-head carvings. The towers on both sides date from different periods: the south tower dates back to the Roman period, while the lower level of the north tower is a Roman structure, and the upper level was rebuilt during the 13th-century era of the Seljuk Sultan Kayqubad I, with traces of several eras converging under the same gate.Antalya · 289m from downtown
Roman Harbour

Roman Harbour

4.8/5
46 reviews
Roman Harbour is tucked away at the foot of the cliffs in Kaleici, the old town of Antalya, and is an ancient harbour that has been in use since the city was founded in the 2nd century BC. For over 2,000 years, it served as an important shelter and trading port on Mediterranean shipping routes. After merchant ships shifted to the newly built modern port outside the city, it ceased its cargo functions and was renovated in the 1980s to become the yacht and sightseeing boat marina filled with masts that it is today. The harbour is surrounded by walls and fortifications from the Roman, Byzantine, Seljuk, and Ottoman periods, with layers of old red-tiled houses on the cliffs above, making the entire bay resemble an open-air theater facing the sea.Antalya · 244m from downtown
Lower Duden Waterfalls

Lower Duden Waterfalls

5.8
5.0/5
35 reviews
Lower Duden Waterfalls is located in Antalya, Türkiye. The Duden River flows through the city, leaving behind two waterfalls with distinct styles: the upper and lower sections. The Upper Duden Waterfalls are hidden in a forest park on the northeast side of the city. With dense pine shade, the river cascades down in layers within the park, and the lawns under the trees are a popular spot for locals to picnic and take walks. A famous experience here is behind the waterfall: a natural cave runs behind the water curtain. Visitors can walk into the cave and look out at the greenery through the cascading water, with mist hitting their faces, as if they were in a "water curtain cave." The Lower Duden Waterfalls offer a different scene. Located on the coastal cliffs in the Lara area, the river falls directly from the cliff edge, which is dozens of m high, into the Mediterranean Sea, creating a scene where the waterfall flows into the sea. The clifftop park has several viewing platforms where you can take photos overlooking the spot where the waterfall meets the blue sea. On sunny days, rainbows often appear between the mist and the waves. Sightseeing boats departing from Antalya harbor can sail to the front of the waterfall, allowing you to look up at the water crashing into the sea and the mist it kicks up. The scenery is especially moving at sunset.Antalya · 7.8 km from downtown

Perge Ancient City

4.8/5
33 reviews
The ancient city of Pergai is located about 18 kilometers northeast of Antalya City. It was built in the 10th century BC and is a relatively well-preserved ancient city in Antalya Province. In the 2nd century BC, because this place was inland, protected from pirates, and irrigated by the Ax River, which led directly to the Mediterranean Sea, it flourished for a time and was an important city in Pamphylia (today's Mediterranean region) in Asia Minor. In 1946, the ancient city of Perge was discovered and archaeological excavations began. The Axe River used to be an important trade channel in Pergai, and its watershed is also a tourist hotspot with many historical sites. Pergay is hot and humid all year round, especially in summer. Tourists stroll through the monuments and often see lizards in the grass. It is a veritable outdoor adventure destination.Antalya · 15.4 km from downtown

The Antalya aquarium broke ground in November 2011 and opened in 2012, housing thousands of marine species and tens of thousands of fish. It is one of Antalya's larger modern tourist centers. Featuring the world's longest underwater tunnel at 131 m, visitors can explore the unique Mediterranean seabed in this spacious transparent space and even experience swimming alongside sharks. This aquarium is built near the Arapsuyu Olbia canyon along the coast. In addition to a large number of marine creatures from the Mediterranean region, it also houses many precious fish species that have traveled long distances from places like Singapore. The stunning underwater decor designs inside the aquarium are works by the world-renowned Italian sculptor Benedetti, most of which were carved in South Africa before being transported to Antalya. Inside the massive aquarium tank, there is also a life-sized propeller plane, along with models of shipwrecks and submarines, making this underwater world even more magnificent and captivating. Since its opening, the aquarium has quickly become a popular activity venue in the Antalya region. Rooftop cocktail parties and the emerging trend of aquarium weddings have become sought-after symbols of urban lifestyle in Antalya.Antalya · 4.1 km from downtown

Kaleiçi is the historic old town core of Antalya, Turkey, and it is absolutely worth a half-day or full-day visit if you want a break from all-inclusive resort life. There are a lot of wonderful cafes and restaurants where you can enjoy delicious local meals.It is worth visiting 💯

The vicissitudes and desolation of Hadrian's Gate make people see the city's rich history. Hadrian's Gate is right on the edge of the old city. The pillars seem to have been built later, and the color is different from the surrounding doorways, but the ancient gate has now merged with the old city.

What a beautiful city, with a different kind of tranquility, perhaps because of the history that has settled here. In fact, I don’t know much about the history of Rome, and I don’t understand some of the monuments, but I simply like the atmosphere here.

I don't know which illiterate person translated Perge as "佩尔盖"! Fucks, Turks don't understand, Europeans don't understand! A 3500-year-old ancient site, an authentic ruin! The entire city-state is incredibly well-organized! The main city's residential area, the adjacent sports field, and the amphitheater further away—each has its function, with towering round stone columns and archways! Exquisite stone carvings and murals, simply perfect! Absolutely stunning from a geometric and aesthetic perspective! The indentations in the stone slabs on the ground show signs of long-term activity! By the way, I also picked a bunch of cactus fruits nearby 😀

Antalya Aquarium is an ocean world that is well worth visiting. Many ancient Roman ruins are imitated here. The scenes that are sunk underwater look very mysterious. In these buildings, there are many marine fish and animals swimming around, as if you have come to an ancient and mysterious underwater ruins. It is really worth seeing, so don't miss it.

Kaleici Castle is located on a hill by the sea in Antalya, Turkey. From the beach, you can see the winding walls and castle on the hill in the distance. Climb to the top of the hill and look down through the walls. The buildings in the city stretch along the coast. There are abandoned Byzantine churches and castles on the hill.
