About this tour

Antalya Old Town, also known as Kaleiçi, is the historical heart of the city and one of its most visited areas. Its narrow stone streets, historic buildings, sea views, and authentic atmosphere offer visitors a feeling of having traveled back in time.

Kaleiçi is the historical center of Antalya, bearing traces of the Roman, Byzantine, Seljuk, and Ottoman periods. Today, restored Ottoman houses serve as boutique hotels, cafes, restaurants, and art galleries.Hadrian’s Gate is a magnificent triumphal arch located in Antalya’s historic Kaleiçi district, built in honor of Roman Emperor Hadrian. It has survived to this day as one of Antalya’s best-preserved ancient structures.Hadrian’s Gate was built in 130 AD to commemorate the visit of Roman Emperor Hadrian to Antalya. As one of the most important entrance gates to the ancient Pamphylia region, this structure served as the city’s main transit point for centuries.

The history of the Broken Minaret dates back to the Roman period (2nd century AD). Originally built as a Roman temple, it was converted into the Panagia Church during the Byzantine period, and later used as a mosque during the Ottoman period.

A major fire in the 11th century damaged its minaret and superstructure, hence its current name, “The Broken Minaret.”
