Karaoğlan Parkı

The big Kara Alioğlu Parkı sprawls south of the historic district of Antalya. Promenade paths lead the way through the lush subtropical vegetation, featuring fountains and numerous shadowy places. Because of its tea houses and the beautiful view over the ocean, this garden paradise is a popular meeting point among the people of Antalya. Located at its northern end is the Hıdırlık Kulesi, a tower with a square floor on the bottom and round top floor from the 2nd century. During Roman times, it... was probably a lighthouse, later it became a cannon platform to protect the harbor of Antalya. more
