Its turquoise waters, its mild winters, sizzling summers and\u00a0300 days of sunshine\u00a0have historically led it to be a beach destination, but its dramatic setting atop a limestone plateau facing Roman walls and Ottoman-era homes led Mustafa Kemal Atat\u00fcrk, the founder of the Republic of Turkey, to\u00a0once proclaim, “There is no doubt that Antalya is the most beautiful place in the world.”<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
