Karaalioğlu Park is a very large park in Antalya, situated just south of the Kaleiçi district. The park's attractions include the mayor's office, the city theater, and the ancient citadel, Hıdırlık Tower. The view from Karaalioğlu Park includes beautiful cliffs and the exhilarating Gulf of Antalya. Authorities plan to inaugurate a new history museum here in 2010.

The tomb and Masjid (mosque) of Akhi Yusuf was constructed in 1249 to honor Akhi Yusuf, a sheik of the Akhi. Traveller Ibn Batuta visited the area in the 14th century and described the Akhis life of camaraderie in Antalya. He remarked that Akhis had done an auspicious work the like of which he had never seen before. The tomb is located south of the masjid with an entrance on its north side. Near the east wall of the masjid is a small fountain.

Iskele Mosque is a very small, charming mosque in the old Yacht Harbor area. Historical documents are not specific about its time of construction, except that it was renovated as part of the Inner Bailey restoration project. Situated near the marina, this eye-catching 19th century mosque was built of white stone with a short minaret and is supported by four columns.

Hadrian's Gate is an enormous triple-arched marble portal based on the Roman triumphal arch, the only surviving gate from that era. This marvelously decorated structure was built to celebrate Emperor Hadrian's visit in 130 AD. The southern tower is called Julia Sancta and also dates from the Hadrian era, though the northern gate was rebuilt in the 13th century. Through this gate you will enter into Kaleiçi and Hesapçi Sokak.

The oldest structures in Kaleiçi are the remains of the city fortifications that surround this old-town area. Only the Clock Tower remains of the 80 towers that once formed this citadel. The beautiful Karaalioğlu Park surrounds this structure, which was converted to a Clock Tower in the 19th century. Overlooking the cliffs, this square structure is composed of both rough and hewn limestone.

King Atallos II of Pergamon is thought to have founded Antalya in the 2nd century BC. His monument is located on Republic Square in Antalya, opposite the Clock Tower. It is an old monument but well preserved to this day, with an excellent location that draws thousands of tourists on a daily basis.

Besides the famous minaret and mosque, the Yivli Minare complex includes other notable structures, such as a building once used as a lodge for the Mevlevi Dervishes. Two domed tombs are also located on the grounds: the tomb of Zincirkıran Mehmet Bey was built in 1377, and another was built in 1502 as a memorial for Ayşe Hatun who was the consort of Sultan Bayezid II, and mother of the next sultan Selim I. A former Islamic seminary, Atabey Aramgan Medresseh has been restored to function as a bazaar.

Also called the Independence Monument, this stirring statue of Atatürk was built in 1932 in Republic Square (Cumhuriyet Meydanı), and is one of the largest and most remarkable monuments in Antalya. Visitors should take note of the pedestal which displays reliefs depicting various scenes from Turkey's War of Independence, and an inscription that was likely a rallying cry of the time. Another monument of Atatürk is located in Vatan Square.

Though the founding of Elmali is not known to historians, excavations show that the region has been populated for several thousand years, since the Bronze Age. Among the archaeological and historical treasures of Emali are the tombs of kings, a street ornamented with frescoes depicting hunting and fighting, and remarkable mosques. The so-called "treasure of the century" was excavated there in 1984, a collection of 1900 silver coins from the time of ancient Greek city-states.
