The real Antalya

After two nights eating in the Adam & Eve, a few of us decided that we just couldn't take it anymore. So we hired a taxi to take us into the old town, or Kaleici, of Antalya. This was a 45 min ride each way and cost us an exorbitant 90 euros round trip. But it was well worth it to get away from the all white asylum that we were stuck in!

Antalya's old town was lovely - an all pedestrian area that reminded me of the walled towns in Tuscany. We walked out to a beautiful overlook and saw the sweep of the coast and a small harbor. The sun was setting and it was gorgeous.

We then walked down to the harbor and had dinner at Ekeci, a nice fish restaurant. 5 of us shared a 1.5 kg grouper that was extremely fresh (bright red gills!) then filleted and grilled to perfection.

It was a wonderful outing that allowed us a brief glimpse of what Antalya really had to offer.
