Alanya, Turkey


Alanya, Turkey, is one of the most beautiful Turkish cities in Turkey. Located on the Mediterranean Sea, Alanya is an important tourist city for Germans, roughly 5000 of them, who call Alanya their summer home. For me, though, the beauty of Alanya is its history. Alanya is an ancient Seljuk city. Not far from the city is an ancient Seljuk mosque surrounded by castle walls. I got some great shots of Alanya from atop the minaret of the mosque. Alanya also has some great fruit orchards with the best tasting oranges I ever tasted.

Below are photos I took from my trip to Alanya back in January, 2002.  I remember my friends who paid for my air ticket and entire stay in Alanya.
