Experience the splendor of the historic clock tower!

Where is here? The historical Clock Tower, one of the landmarks of Antalya, is located at the Kalekapısı site on Cumhuriyet Street. The bell tower built on the outer walls was built on a pentagonal bastion with a smaller square plan. When it was built, there was a beautiful dome at the top, resembling an onion head, and bells were placed at all four points of the building.
