Although many people choose to spend their time relaxing on the beaches and soaking up the rays, a holiday in Antalya is also perfect for sightseeing with so many exciting things to discover.

One of the first stops on any tour of the city is the Old City Walls; many tourists choose to walk along them to explore the spectacular Hadrian Arch and The Clock Tower. Dating back to the ancient Hellenistic era, the City Walls are a great place to visit if you wish to lean about the history of the city. In the centre of the city there is plenty of exciting entertainment, shopping and accommodation facilities to enjoy along with a wide range of spectacular architecture to appreciate whilst staying there. The marina area is one of the most famous spots in Antalya; visitors can spend time watching the many large yachts that are moored in the area and grab a bite to eat in one of the many traditional cafes.

The Antalya Museum is another great attraction within the city and a fantastic place to learn more about the diverse culture of this Turkish retreat.

Holidays in Antalya are steadily getting more popular therefore it is the best time to visit the country before it gets overcome by commercial tourism.
