The main fortress of Alanya is definitely worth a visit for lovers of ancient ruins. It is very colorful, and there is a wonderful view from the observation decks. You can get to Ichkala by car or taxi, there is Parking nearby. The road up is a serpentine, colorful in itself and with a couple of observation decks. I lowered the entrance fee - it says 12 euros at the checkout (August 2024) and in small font below - payment is only in lira. We, who were used to the euro and the dollar in Turkey, were without lira, and we were immediately advised to exchange it at a nearby seller's market, where, of course, the exchange rate is 30 lira per dollar. It spoiled the mood and the impression.
Since I am a lover of everything ancient, I really liked it. The fortress is well restored, dating back to the times of the Roman Empire. The views from here are just a bomb. April 24th entrance cost 12 euros, there are plenty of places where you can walk for free up to the fortress. We got here on foot from the lower station of the cable car along the road, then the paths uphill, we decided not to spend money on the canal in 5 minutes. The ascent is not difficult, half an hour maximum, the main thing is to take water with you. There are plenty of paths, if you decide to walk, you can go safely. You can also take a taxi and a cable car.
A medieval fortress, very well preserved in places. I will not retell the audio guide, I recommend listening to the story yourself. I would like to note that the place is quite quiet, there are few tourists, stunning cedars, and a great view of the sea.
Beautiful views, there is an observation deck along the way. Entrance is 12€ per person, there is nothing to see inside, it is better to look at the next one. Parking 1€ for 8h
It's not worth your money at all ...
As of September 2024, the price is 500 lira. for 1 person.
In fact, the ruins are stupidly the same as what we saw after the funicular, nothing new and picturesque, the views are the same as before, the piles of stones are the same.
Don't waste your time.
Well, on the verge of cost.
You can take a walk for 30 minutes.
If you expect that there is nothing there at all, then you can be surprised.
If you think that there is a museum there, probably not.
Место прикольное, но наверху вас ждёт платный вход в крепость за 280 лир с человека. По мне это не стоит того. Но можно подняться просто ради видов. Тут сосновый лес и очень хороший воздух
Великолепное зрелище! Не пожалейте время, поднимитесь сюда и наслаждайтесь видами крепости 13 века, построенной на руинах античности ну и видами с неё!
