Why Antalya matters

Antalya combines an old harbour quarter with a modern resort city. The old town is a maze of Ottoman houses and Roman gates, the beaches stretch along the coast, and the snow-capped Taurus mountains rise behind. It's the gateway to Mediterranean Turkey.

Talking points

  • The old town sits above a harbour.
  • Taurus mountains form the backdrop.
  • Beaches stretch along the coast.
