The ancient Byzantine city of Antalya is one of the most important centres for art and culture in Turkey. Standing in the centre of Antalya is a perfectly preserved old town whose fortified walls stretch down to a stylish yacht marina, attracting visitors from a variety of countries during the summer. The rugged cliffs that surround the city afford stunning panoramic views out to sea. 17km east of Antalya is the breathtaking resort of Lara - a sweep of luxurious hotels arranged behind one of Turkey's finest beaches.
