Alanya

Alanya is a small resort town, remote from Antalya for 110 kilometers. The population is just over 100,000. This wonderful town is comfortably located on the shores of the Mediterranean Sea in Turkey. It is the Mediterranean subtropics that form excellent weather in Alanya throughout the year.

This resort city has a rich and eventful history, the beginning of which dates back to 67 BC, when the Roman Empire conquered and annexed this territory. Alanya is a concentration of many legends, myths, appendages and fairy tales.
Above the city, on one of the most beautiful capes of the Mediterranean Sea at an altitude of 250m, rises a massive fortress-castle. In 1221 AD, it was built by the Seljukid sultan Aleddin Keykuba 1, who turned Alanya into his residence. The ancient walls of this fortress stretch for 6 km. Long before that, Mark Antony gave the city and all of Cilicia to Cleopatra, who used local cedar forests for shipbuilding. In favor of this fact is the fact that the resort has one of the cleanest and most beautiful beaches, which was named after this great ruler. According to rumors, the beach did not exist until Cleopatra ordered its creation. If you compare the sand and the architecture of the beaches of Alanya, you can see the striking distinctive features between cleopatra beach and the rest. And this artificial beach has become one of the most famous attractions of the resort, on which special rules are established.
Also, those who have chosen tours to Turkey, to Alanya, can visit many other historical sights, such as the fortress of Agar Evliyesi, the stalactite cave with a source of healing water Damlatas, the Cave of Lovers, the Phosphorus Cave and the Cave of pirates, where, according to legend, an underground staircase was built connecting this place with the fortress, the Red Tower and much more!
