A relaxed walk through Antalya's old town, from Hadrian's Roman gate past a church that became a mosque, the Broken Minaret and the clifftop Hıdırlık Tower, finishing at the Seljuk Fluted Minaret and the Clock Tower. Mostly flat cobbled lanes with a few gentle slopes — go at your own pace, with stories at every stop and the option to have them read aloud.
- Start: Hadrian's Gate
