Antalya 3-Day Itinerary

A long seafront park with direct views over the marina and the Taurus Mountains. Benches, paths, and a few cafes. Good for a quiet afternoon or sunset.

🕐 Always open

💡 Go after 5pm for cooler air and fewer crowds. The lower path by the cliffs gives the best photos of the harbour.

A well-preserved Roman triumphal arch from AD 130, marking the entrance to the old city. Walk through it and see the original marble pavement.

🕐 Always open

💡 Come early in the morning (before 9am) to have it mostly to yourself. The side streets around it have free public fountains.

Antalya's landmark fluted minaret, built in the 13th century by the Seljuk sultan. The adjacent mosque is still active, but you can view the minaret from the square.

🕐 Always visible from outside; mosque open during prayer times

💡 Best viewed from the opposite side of Kalekapisi Square, where the whole structure is framed against the old town wall. No entry inside the mosque for non-worshippers.

The old walled quarter of Antalya, with narrow cobbled lanes, Ottoman-era wooden houses, and small courtyards. Free to wander and explore the historic architecture.

🕐 Always open

💡 Start at the clock tower and head downhill towards the marina. Look for the tiny 'Uzun Sokak' alley – it's quieter and lined with original wooden doors.
