Stone and Bronze Ages to Byzantium, including finds from ancient Lycian cities and the Roman/Byzantine province
of Pamphylia, marble busts, statues of Olympian gods and gold artefacts.
Drinking & Entertainment
Kaleiçi offers buzzy beer gardens with million-dollar views, live music venues with
everything from rock to
türkü
(Turkish folk music), and raunchy, pricey clubs.
CASTLE CAFÉ

Our favourite place along the
cliff's edge just opposite the Hıdırlık Kalesi, the appropriately named Castle is buzzy, af-
fordable and a good place to meet a younger crowd of Turks.
