Many of the old houses which are separated by the classic narrow, cobble-stone roads are now featured as hotels and tourist shops. The Museums in Antalya house the ancient findings which belong to the historic ages of Anatolia and traces of Lycian, Hellenistic,Roman,Byzantine,Seljuk and Ottman architecture and culture can still be seen.
This area also has the cleanest sea in the whole of the Mediterranean region at Konyaalti and Lara coasts due to the large masses of rock on which the city was built upon. This rock mass naturally purifies the sea giving it a fresh, clean, crispness in which to laze in during your stay.
