🦁 Lion Sarcophagus (Kas King’s Tomb) – A Majestic Lycian Legacy

Standing tall at the end of Uzun Carsı Street, this 4th-century BCE monument carved from a single stone block captures Lycian artistry and mystery. Its base features bead designs and an eight-line Lycian inscription, while the top is guarded by fierce lion heads—even though only two remain visible today. Best of all? It’s free to visit! A proud emblem of Kas, waiting just around the corner—don’t miss it! #postandearn #antalya

Kaleici

Old-World Charm in Antalya’s Kaleici 🌅🏰 Step into the spellbinding streets of Kaleici, Antalya’s historic heart! Tucked inside ancient Roman walls, this waterfront old town dazzles with Ottoman mansions, vibrant cafes, lively bazaars, and postcard-worthy sea views. 🧭 Recommended Route & Must-Dos Start at Hadrian’s Gate, then meander through twisting alleyways peppered with little shops and local eateries. Pause for coffee in a leafy courtyard, or tuck into fresh seafood at a terrace overlooking the marina. Don’t miss Hidirlik Tower for panoramic sunset views over the sparkling Mediterranean! 📷 Insta-Worthy Spots Snap the ornate arches of Hadrian’s Gate, sun-dappled bougainvillea draped over old balconies, and the blue-hued marina from above. Nighttime is magical too: lantern-lit lanes have an irresistible glow for golden hour shots. ✨ Local Tips Go early morning or after sunset for cool temperatures and fewer crowds. Wear comfy shoes—streets are cobbled and slopes can be a workout. Stop at the marina for a boat tour if you want sea views of the city. ⚡ Precautions The old streets can be slippery after rain and some alleys get very steep. Keep a secure hold on bags in busy bazaar spots. Most shops take cards, but smaller vendors will prefer cash. Having explored Istanbul and Buyukada island too, Antalya’s blend of warm Mediterranean airs and timeless Marmara spirit sets a relaxing yet utterly sublime mood—perfect for slow discovery. #Antalya #Kaleici #TurkeyTravel #OldTown #MediterraneanVibes
