ROMAN FORTRESS

Roman Fortress (aka Hidirlik Tower) is situated on a cliff at the southern tip of the Karaalioglu Park, where land converges with the water. The 14 m high (46 ft) cylindrical tower over the square pedestal functioned as a fort or watchtower guiding ships to navigate to the port at nights.

Today, this spot stands out for witnessing captivating sunsets or enjoying a bewitching bird’s view of the blue waters and the Old Harbor area as part of your Turkey travel itinerary. The park and the adjacent eateries gratify the mind and stomach of the visitors with their scenic beauty and delicious food. Not only visitors, but even the locals frequent this place to relax and saunter in the evenings.
