Antalya's Old Town & Hadrians Gate (Kaleiçi)

Also known as Old Antalya, the small historic section called Kaleiçi (KAH-leh-ee-chee) at the center of the sprawling modern city (map) was the Roman town, then the Byzantine, then the Seljuk Turkish, and finally the Ottoman Turkish town.

The huge, modern city of Antalya didn't really start to appear until after World War II. Until then, Kaleiçi was Antalya, with its massive stone walls, meandering streets, and picturesque old houses built so close they often overshadow the narrow lanes.

Kaleiçi is where I always stay when I visit Antalya. Its many charming small boutique hotels, inns and budget pensions offer comfortable, even luxurious accommodations and fine dining in an old-time atmosphere. I much prefer them to the large beach hotels that populate Konyaaltı and Lara beaches.
