ALANYA TURKEY: Top 15 AMAZING Things to Do in Alanya (MUST WATCH!!!)

Today I share with you the top 15 things that you must see in Alanya Turkey. This is the best video you will ever see on Alanya, which is in the Antalya province of Turkey, as I show the top must-visit attractions of this city.

Take the Teleferik (Alanya cable car) up to Alanya Castle was built in the 13th century under the Seljuk Empire following the city’s conquest in 1220 by Sultan Aladdin Keykubad I.
The castle was built on the remnants of earlier Byzantine and Roman era fortifications. Today the castle is an open-air museum showcasing some of the Seljuk era artefacts and turquoise blue tiles.
You can also visit the Suleymaniye Camii in Alanya before you reach the castle.

One of the best ways to explore the coast of Alanya is by taking a boat tour from the harbour. You can take a private boat or the popular pirate ships which take you to various beaches and caves. One of the caves you can see is the Phosphorus Cave which is located in the Damlatas peninsula. The phosphorus coating on the walls causes the cave to glow a vibrant blue colour even during the night.

Side is just an hour drive from Alanya and a popular day trip from the city.
It is an ancient port city with long beaches, Greco-Roman ruins, a 2nd century amphitheatre and the famous Temple of Apollo. The old city of Side is filled with many cafes, restaurants, boutique hotels, souvenir shops and museums.

There are many local bazaars in Alanya where you can buy souvenirs.
If you’re looking for some big stores then you may want to visit the Alanyum mall. You will find many big stores, boutiques, souvenirs, a food court, a children’s play area as well as a cinema in Alanyum.

The Kevi Evi Park (or Cat House Park) is home to many cats and is full of beautiful trees and fountains. It is a great park to visit in central Alanya.

If you're looking for a good authentic Turkish restaurant then one we highly recommend is Bursa Kebab Ev in Alanya. One of our favourite cafes that you may consider visiting is Cafe Della Via in Alanya which serves delicious teas, coffees and refreshments.

The Red Fort or Red Tower is an iconic landmark of Alanya and full of well-preserved history from the Seljuk era.

There are many beautiful beaches in Alanya, including Cleopatra Beach (or Kleopatra Beach), Damlatas Beach and many more. You can do many activities such as paragliding, jet skiing and many more.

From Damlatas beach you can visit Damlataş cave (or Damlataş Margarasi).
