The city was founded in the year 158 B.C. by Atalos, the King of Pergamon. Today, Antalya is the capital of the southern Turkish province of the same name. The city's landmarks are: the Yivli Minaret (dating from the 13th century) and the clock tower at the entranceway to the old part of the city with a city wall and the Hadrian's Gate (built in 130 A.D. to commemorate a visit by the Roman emperor Hadrian). There are lots of little winding streets, old buildings and mosques. The Bazaar in particular is the perfect place to take a stroll and maybe buy some gold or silver jewellery or a carpet. In the new town of Antalya you will find the bus station (Otogar), from where you can travel at little expense to all parts of Turkey.

Istanbul (Turkey)

A world city with a unique character. A city filled with beauty and contrast, with a breathtaking history - from Byzantium to Constantinople to the present day. But Istanbul has more to offer than culture - inexpensive shopping, oriental cuisine or meeting new people are just examples of the many things one can do here. The city is full of buildings, monuments, churches and mosques, all steeped in history.

Lovingly referred to by the Turks as "beautiful Izmir", the town lies at the opening of a broad gulf, busy with ships and yachts. Behind the palm-lined waterside promenade the city is built in terraces up the slopes of the surrounding mountains. The Jewish quarter 'Asansör' has many lovingly restored houses. The Archaeological Museum not far from Konak square has an excellent collection of ancient works of art. The Hisar mosque is the largest and most important in the city.

Rhodes, the island of the Sun God Helios, is the largest and most popular island in the south-eastern Aegean. Due to its favourable geographic position it was once an important link between the Orient and the Occident. The 220 km long coastline is a mix between coves with beautiful flat sandy beaches and steep cliffs. The landscape inland is dominated by mountains, valleys and plateaus. Rhodes' history goes back more than 3,000 years. There are many archaeological excavation sites of ancient buildings, bearing witness to Rhodes' eventful past.
Sights include: ruins from the Mycaean era, the ancient theatre, the gothic buildings, the round fort dating from the time of the Knights of St. John, the Turkish mosque and the Turkish baths.
