Visit Kaleiçi, Antalya, Turkey
Kaleiçi (Old Antalya) is the historic city center of Antalya, Turkey. Until modern times, almost the entire city was confined within its walls. It has structures dating from the Roman, Byzantine, Seljuk, Ottoman and modern Turkish republican eras. Kaleiçi offers massive stone walls, narrow cobbled streets, and picturesque old houses.
The Kaleiçi area is located in the centre-eastern portion of the city along the mediterranean coast fronted by the yacht harbour that dates to the Roman era. There are several entrances to Kaleiçi, but the most convenient is Kalekapısı, and the most picturesque and historic is Hadrian's Gate.
The name Kaleiçi means "Inside the Kale" or "Inner Kale" (Kale itself means castle or fortress).
