DAY 7 ANTALYA – DUDEN WATERFALLS
Breakfast and drive to Antalya`s old City. Visit the Clock Tower, Hadrian’s Gate, Broken Minaret and Hıdırlık Tower: Kaleici is a small historic part of Antalya’s modern city, also known as the old city of Antalya. In history it was once the sprawling modern Roman town, the Byzantine Empire, Seljuks, and finally the Ottoman Turkish town. The Hadrian’s Gate or The Three Gates is a triumphal arch which was built in the name of the Roman emperor Hadrian. Antalya’s broken wonder is the Broken Minaret of the Korkut Mosque, which itself was built originally as a Roman temple in the 2nd century AD, and thus did not have a minaret at all. Hıdırlık Tower is a landmark of tawny stone in Antalya, Turkey, where Kaleiçi meets Karaalioglu Park. It is believed to be built in Hellenistic era on a square plan and later turned into circular tower in 2nd century AD and was either used as a fortification or a lighthouse in the past. After lunch depart for Duden waterfalls. All the streams of the region aim at finding their way into the Mediterranean and they pour down the slopes of the Taurus, sometimes overland sometimes underground and reaching their destination, result in lovely waterfalls, of which there are more than twenty.
