Antalya, often referred to as the ‘Turkish Riviera,’ is the Mediterranean heart of Turkey, famous for its stunning turquoise coast, ancient history, and vibrant modern life. This sprawling resort city is anchored by the historic Old Town, **Kaleiçi**, with its narrow, winding streets, historic Ottoman-era houses, and the iconic Roman-era **Hadrian’s Gate**. Beyond the city center, Antalya is the gateway to magnificent beaches, waterfalls, and well-preserved ancient ruins like those at Aspendos and Perge, making it a perfect destination combining sun, sea, and millennia of culture.
