This bay has nothing to do with Cleopatra, but is named so because of the rock resembling a female profile. I want to tell you how to get from Kemer to Cleopatra Bay on your own and you decide whether it is worth the time spent.
I am writing advice for the laziest tourists : ))) and for those who do not want to take an excursion in travel agencies, but feel the oriental flavor of Antalya on their own.
Today I visited the ancient city of Phaselis and its beaches. I agree with all the rave reviews. The place is really very beautiful. But everything is in order. We got from Kemer by a local minibus.
Whoever happens to visit the Old Town area - Kaleici of Antalya, I advise you to look at the street called Umbrella Street. On the one hand, it enters the Old Market, and runs parallel to Ataturk Caddesi Street.
As the locals say, visiting Antalya and not being photographed next to King Pergamum Attalus II Philadelphus, the founder of Antalya, who lived more than two thousand years ago (the year of death is 137 BC) is the same as visiting New York and don't walk across the Brooklyn Bridge.
The oldest minaret in Antalya certainly deserves attention. For eight centuries, the appearance of the minaret has not changed much. And it reminds me of a spaceship launching into the sky, and next to the mosque is the mission control center : )))
Compared to other monuments in Antalya, Saat Kulesi is relatively young. It was built on the border of the XIX - XX centuries. On the 25th anniversary of his reign, the German Emperor Wilhelm II presented Sultan Abdul Hamid with a batch of facade clocks.
If you want to admire the panorama of Antalya from the top of Mount Tü nektepe, I advise you to take a ride on the cable car. You can get to the top (605 m) of the mountain in 9 minutes and you will have magnificent views.
If you get the chance to see this waterfall, don't miss it. Very beautiful and photogenic place. We got on our own. Bus 8 runs from the center, it takes about 30-40 minutes to go.
There are not many places on the planet where really ancient monuments of architecture have been preserved. And it may happen that your great-grandchildren will no longer be able to see them, and you will pass on family photos from the past.
Walking through the center of Kemer, be sure to take the time to the Clock Tower, walk the bridges between the fountains. Relax from the heat in the shadow of the tower under the murmur of water with a cup of Turkish tea.
The facades of many hotels overlook this boulevard and carry most of the city's traffic. In the evening, tourists tired of the rest stroll between the shops. Very green and clean.
Since the holiday budget was soaked: )) before, and I really wanted to splash in the warm sea, the choice was made in favor of the economy option in Turkey. After rummaging on the Internet, and having read all sorts of "horrors" about the Turkish 3 *, picked up the reviews of this hotel.
