Turkey - Antalya holidays

introduction to Antalya

Known as the 'Pearl of the Mediterranean', Antalya sits in a stunning, mountain-backed bay on Turkey's south west coast and is made for exploring. Founded in the 6th century B.C., it oozes history and charm with a picturesque old town filled with Byzantine, Roman and Greek houses. Its carpet shops and restaurants are ringed by ancient city walls, and you'll also enjoy strolling along the palm-lined boulevards and yacht marina. A choice of scenic sandy and pebble beaches await nearby, and among the beauty spots in the vicinity are awesome caves, historic sites and some breathtaking local waterfalls.
