Chill Out with Antalya Holidays All Inclusive Packages
Located on the Turkish Riviera, Antalya is Turkey's
largest city on the Mediterranean coast. It is visited by millions of tourists
every year owing to its enchanting natural surroundings and some fabulous
historic attractions. Since its establishment by the Attalid dynasty during the
2nd century BC, it was ruled by many great empires over the years until it
became a leading city of Turkey after the country's independence. During your
holiday in this Turkish coastal city, you'll get the opportunity to visit some
historic attractions and indulge in exciting activities outdoors.
The Antalya
holidays all inclusive packages offer can help you venture out of the city
to explore the historically important monuments that are mostly found in the
surrounding countryside. Among them are the ruins of Perge, which was a capital
of Pamphylia Secunda of the Asia Minor region. It is one of the brilliant
examples of Roman architecture existing in recent times. You can also find one
of the best-preserved ancient stadiums during your visit to Perge. This stadium
was built to accommodate up to 15,000 spectators who could watch some epic
chariot races from the stands.
Your Antalya holidays would also give you the chance
to visit the ruins of the ancient city of Aspendos. It is located at a distance
of about 40 kilometres from Antalya and can be explored with a day trip taken
from the city. A major highlight of this site is the ancient theatre, which was
built in the 2nd century and is considered to be the world's best-preserved
theatre of its kind. During your visit to this theatre, you can climb the rows
of seating and go to the topmost portion in order to get the feel of a bygone
era when some fantastic performances were held at this site and were attended by
thousands of individuals.
One of the short boat trips around the coastal areas
of the city during your Antalya holidays would allow you to get to the Duden
Waterfalls. They are made up of two waterfalls, namely the Lower Duden and the
Upper Duden. These two waterfalls are fed by a river running from the Taurus
Mountains to the Mediterranean Sea. If you wish to experience the thrills of
white water rafting, head to the Koprulu Canyon National Park, which is located
at a distance of about 90 kilometres away from the city and is one of the
country's leading white water rafting spots. You can also camp beside the river
if you plan to spend more time in this park.
Don't forget to explore the Old Town or 'Kaleici'
while holidaying in Antalya. This particular neighbourhood has been maintained
well by the Turkish authorities and is an ideal place to enjoy a pleasant
stroll. While taking a walk on the cobblestone streets, you can witness some
old Ottoman mansions that have undergone massive restoration works. Many of
them have been converted into boutique hotels, restaurants, and shops. You can
also explore some fascinating attractions in Kaleici, such as the Yivli Minare
Mosque and the main square called 'Kale Kapisi'.
You’ll get the chance to relax on enchanting white-sand
beaches with cheap
Maldives tour packages.
