Antalya Car Rental

What Is Antalya Like?

According to English Wikipedia, Antalya is one of Türkiye's largest cities and is known as the "capital of tourism"; it sits on the south-west Anatolian coast flanked by the Taurus Mountains. The city stands on the site of ancient Attaleia, founded by Attalus II of Pergamon; monuments such as Hadrian's Gate date from the Roman period.

According to Go Türkiye sea, sun, history and nature come together in Antalya: the walled old town of Kaleiçi, the ancient cities around the city, the beaches and the forests are parts of this whole.
