Its intricate carvings tell us about Rome\u2019s influence on the Mediterranean.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There is also a story that says, during ancient times, the Queen of Sheba took the middle arch and went to Aspensos, so that she could spend time with King Solomon.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you are interested in all the ancient remains this place has, I am sure it will be an excellent trip for you.

How many days are enough to explore Antalya?<\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">3 to 4 days are sufficient to see all the major places in Antalya. These days, you cover the famous D\u00fcden Waterfalls, spend time on the beach, and visit the ancient cities. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, if you have more days and budget, you can choose to stay more than 4 days. With this, you can experience many regional food stalls, restaurants, and calm streets, and book workshops, as well as discover many unique things to do in Antalya.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #3366ff;\">2. When is the best time to visit Antalya?<\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">April to October is the ideal time to visit Antalya. So during this time, the coastal city offers a perfect climate for enjoying water activities and beach time, with temperatures not too hot or cold. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Also, the most famous <a href=\"https:\/\/dimaak.com\/blog\/best-time-to-visit-turkey\/\">season to visit Turkey<\/a> is July to August. You can expect a huge crowd and high costs for everything.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #3366ff;\">3. Are there things to do in Antalya during winter?<\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yes, there are a few things you can do that are undisturbed by the weather. You can visit historical sights, discover local food places, take workshops, and try the Turkish Bath. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While Antalya is a coastal region, you may not enjoy the beach days. The water will be too cold to swim in, and the water sports will get cancelled due to bad weather.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Antalya isn\u2019t just that sunbathing destination you see on Instagram.
