Food & Beverage: Eating and drinking holds much significance with the Turks, so much so that, it is regarded as part of the culture.Did you know that the Turkish kitchen ranksthird in the world after the Chinese and French ?You can test this for yourself during your stay.The many marvellous starters include 'Meze', many kinds of kebabs, Köfte or Börek' the meat skewer (with meat of lamb, beef,or chicken). Not to forget the 'Anadolu' meat pan! A true joy for palates and the eyes. One drinks Efes, the local beer or one of the very good Turkish wines Doluca or Kavaklidere. The true connoisseur drinks Raki, also known as „Lionsmilk" when eating. But be careful as too much of this type of milk can give you a serious hangover.

Geography: Antalya can be divided in two into two areas. In the west, the large Taurus mountain range reaches directly up to the sea. This coastal region was also known as „Lycia" in ancient times while the eastern region, of Antalya to Manavgat was known as 'Pamphylia".
