Turkey - Alanya Castle (Alanya Kalesi)
Alanya Castle (Alanya Kalesi) is a medieval castle in the southern Turkish city of Alanya. Most of the castle was built in the 13th century under the Seljuk Sultanate of Rûm following the city's conquest in 1220 by Alaeddin Keykubad I as part of a building campaign that included the Kızıl Kule.
The castle is located 250 metres (820 ft) high on a rocky peninsula jutting into the Mediterranean Sea, which protects it from three sides. The wall which surrounds the castle is 6.5 kilometres (4.0 mi) long and includes 140 towers. 400 different cisterns were built to serve the castle. In 2009, city officials filed to include Alanya Castle and Tersane as UNESCO World Heritage Sites, and were named to the 2009 Tentative List.
Today the building is an open air museum. Access to the seaward castle is ticketed, but much of the area inside the wall, including the landward castle is open to the general public.
Alanya Castle in Alanya, Turkey - Alanya Kalesi - Alanya attractions and viewpoints
We are in Alanya, Turkey at Alanya Castle (Alanya Kalesi). The castle is located on a high rocky peninsula protruding into the Mediterranean sea which protects the fort (castle) from three different angles of attack. The Alanya Castle, built in the 13th Century under Seljuq Sultanate of Rûm, is surrounded by a 6.5 kilometer wall (4 miles), a wall which includes 140 watch towers.
Lying at a height of 250 meters (820 feet) Alanya Castle is a must see attraction when visiting Alanya. From the castle you will see breathtaking views of the City of Alanya and its beaches. This includes beaches lying on the east and west sides of Alanya. At the foot of the mountain (peninsula) lies Cleopatra Beach (Kleopatra Beach), the view down to it is magnificent. In my opinion this has got to be Alanya´s most beautiful beach. If I was to return to Alanya I would definitely choose a hotel located on this beach. My wife and I visited the Alanya Castle in July and it was VERY hot so a word of advice is Take Lots of Water!! We came up the mountain with a Dolmus (Turkeys local hop on hop off taxi/bus) which was cheap (normal public transport prices).
If you are and/or all your travel companions are wearing a good pair of walking shoes and have ample water, sunscreen and a hat, then the walk down the mountain is highly recommended. The views and the atmosphere is tremendous and you can even stop at some of the charming bar/restaurants located on the way down to admire the view, cool down in the shade and have an ice cold beverage :-)
My wife and I are not sporty people but managed the walk without any problems (it is hot, but well worth it).
This is one of Alanya´s main attractions and the best viewpoint in Alanya. My wife and I visited Alanya in July and during that month the Alanya Castle was open from 09:00 (09:00 am) until 19:00 (07:00 pm). Ticket sales ended at 18:30 (06:30 pm)

Alanya Castle (Alanya Kalesi) - Turkey
Most of the castle was built in the 13th century under the Seljuq Sultanate of Rûm following the city's conquest in 1220 by Alaeddin Keykubad I as part of a building campaign that included the Kızıl Kule.
The castle was built on the remnants of earlier Byzantine era and Roman era fortifications. After the area was pacified under the Ottoman Empire, the castle ceased to be purely defensive, and numerous villas were built inside the walls during the 19th century. Today the building is an open air museum. Access to the seaward castle is ticketed, but much of the area inside the wall, including the landward castle is open to the general public.
The castle is located 250 metres (820 ft) high on a rocky peninsula jutting into the Mediterranean Sea, which protects it from three sides. The wall which surrounds the castle is 6.5 kilometres (4.0 mi) long and includes 140 towers. 400 different cisterns were built to serve the castle.[1]
In 2009, city officials filed to include Alanya Castle and Tersane as UNESCO World Heritage Sites, and were named to the 2009 Tentative List.
TURKEY: Castle of Alanya [HD]
On the peninsula of Alanya stands Alanya Castle, a Seljuk era citadel dating from 1226. Most major landmarks in the city are found inside and around the castle.
The current castle was built over existing fortifications and served the double purpose of a palace of local government and as a defensive structure in case of attack.
In 2007, the city began renovating various sections of the castle area, including adapting a Byzantine church for use as a Christian community center. Inside the castle is the Süleymaniye mosque and caravanserai, built by Suleiman the Magnificent.
The old city walls surround much of the eastern peninsula, and can be walked. Inside the walls are numerous historic villas, well preserved examples of the classical period of Ottoman architecture, most built in the early 19th century.
Today the building is an open-air museum. Access to the seaward castle is ticketed, but much of the area inside the wall, including the landward castle is open to the general public.
