Places to visit in Alanya

You must visit Alanya Castle when you're in Alanya. Alanya Castle is almost a symbol of the city. The length of its walls reaches approximately 7 kilometers, and the castle is built on a peninsula. You can reach the castle by walking in about an hour. If you prefer to drive, the road to the castle is also open to vehicle traffic.

Alanya is also famous for its caves. Damlataş, Dim, and Lover's Cave (Âşıklar Mağarası) are among the natural beauties you must see. These caves are some of the most visited spots in the region.
