Eğer beni takip ediyorsanız muhtemelen Antalya’daki tatilimle ilgili bir önceki yazılarımı görmüşsünüzdür. Bu yazı da Antalya’daki tatilimin dördüncü bölümü olacak.

Today I am gonna introduce you some famous places in Antalya which I was not able to go. But I wanted to show you some places you might like.

Bugün sizlere bir önceki yazılarımda bahsedemediğim ve maalesef gidemediğim Antalya’nın bazı yerlerini tanıtacağım.

Kaş
West out of Kekova is a lovely spot surrounded by mountains. When you feel like exploring further, the choice of coves, bays and beaches is almost endless. The local fishermen are very friendly and happy to run a water taxi service to take you to a favourite bay along the coast. The area around the Kaş has remained completely unspoiled, and for people who enjoy swimming it is ideal. Kaş is perfect for the diver who wants to explore the underwater world. Visiting the theatre and the Lycian tombs, the largest of which is in the centre of town, will help you relieve the days when it was called Antiphellos. And wandering through the strets, you can stop to examine the souvenir shops specializng in Turkish handicrafts, various leather goods, copper and silver items, cotton clothing, and the inevitable handmade carpetes. After your shopping is done, stroll along the flower lined Akdeniz Promenade, relaxing under the shade of palm trees and enjoying the scenery. Kaş also offers just the kind of night like you might want - bars and restaurants are plentiful, and whatever pleases you most, you will find it there. Kaş is the perfect spot from which to take a refreshing trek into the mountains. Walk through forested hills, visit remote villages and ancient remains while climbing to the high ridges for super view. For the energetic there is the option of climbing the highest peak in the area, Mt. Kızlarsivrisi ( 3070m) and the second highest, Mt. Akdağ( 3030m) Kaputaş, 18 km from Kaş along the scenic Kalkan Road, has a beautiful beach with the Turquose Grotto at one end.

Kaş
Kaş, Antalya’nın en Batısında kalan en meşhur turistik şehirlerinden bir tanesidir. Kaş’ın doğası kesinlikle bozulmamış ve bence Antalya’nın en muazzam plajlarına sahiptir. Ayrıca su altı dünyasını keşfetmek isteyenler için de ideal bir yerdir. Bence, Kaş Antalya’nın en güzel ilçesidir. Kaş’ı gezinirken, Türk el sanatlarında uzmanlaşmış hediyelik eşya dükkanlarını, çeşitli deri eşyaları, bakır ve gümüş öğeleri, pamuklu giysileri ve harika el yapımı halıları satan dükkanları bulabilirsiniz. Kaş’ta gece hayatı da harikadır keyifli zaman geçirebileceğiniz barlar ve restoranlar da bulunmaktadır.

Kekova Island
An hour from Dalyanağzı by sea, especially enjoyable for yachtsmen, is the island of Kekova, " home of the sun" . kekova is also the name for this entire area of picturesque islands, numerous bays and ancient cities. These bays provide natural harbours in all seasons and here, too, nature is joined by history, to create a harmony rarely seen. Geological Shifting along the northern shore of Kekova Island ( Apollonia) over the years has caused some of the ancient structures to sink under the clean water, creating a sunken city. A bird's eye view of the whole scene of bays, inlets, islands and yachts sailing peacefully on the smooth water can be seen from the Kaleköy Castle ( Simana). The colors of a Van Gogh painting and orange sunsets, together with starry nights, peace and tranquility, playful dolphins, mythological mysteries, and the sparkling sea Kekova provides all this and more.

Kekova Adası

Kekova Adasına ulaşım deniz yoluyla Dalyanağzı'dan yaklaşık bir saat sürmektedir. Adanın yüzölçümü 4.5 km2’dir ve bu adada kimse yaşamamaktadır. Kekova adası, Türkiye’ye ait Akdeniz bölgesinde yer alan en büyük adadır. Doğal güzelliklerinin yansıra antik ve tarihi eserlerinin zenginliği de turistlerin ilgisini çekmektedir. Kekova Adası, uzun yıllar Likya Uygarlığının daha sonra da Roma imparatorluğunun etkisinde kalmıştır.

Perge

The Hittites had settlements in this area around 1500 B.C. and St. Paul stopped here on one of his journeys during the time when Parge ( 18 km away from Antalya) was an important city of ancient Pamphylia. The stage of the theatre has very nice marble relief work. On the outer wall is a three sectioned memorial fountain. Some of the reliefs from the city are displayed in the stadium for easy viewing. Other ruins worth mentioning are the beautiful city gate flanked by two lofty towers, along colonnaded street that was once lined with shops and mosaic pavements, a large agora, and buildings that used to house the baths and gymnasium.

Perge Antik Kenti
Hititlilerin, M.Ö. 1500 yıllında Parge antik kentinde yerleşim yerleri vardı. Şehirdeki akropolisin Tunç Çağı döneminde kurulduğu düşünülmektedir. M.S. 141 ve 240 yılları arasında meydana gelen depremlerden dolayı büyük hasar almıştır. Antalya’da bir çok tarihi yerler bulunmaktadır fakat Antalya’ya geldiyseniz, Parge Antik kentini de mutlaka ziyaret etmenizi öneririm.
