Antalya, Turkey

Antalya - The city of Antalya stretches along the bay bearing its name and is built at 39 meters altitude on a rocky coastline. Land and sea everywhere meet the beaches stretching for miles or the steep cliffs. The Taurus mountains against the blue backdrop of the sky, the precipices and especially the caves close to the sea add another dimension to the beauty of the region. The earthTV broacast camera is installed at the rooftop of the Hillside SU Hotel Antalya.

Geographic Information

Turkey is a divided country: it's ancient and continually recreated by earthquakes and it's located on two continents: Europe and Asia. Turkey is low-lying along the coast, with the high plateau of Anatolia and a mountainous and, in some places, stripped-down terrain in the interior.

Key aspects of tourism
The southern coast - the Turkish Riviera - is quite popular with tourists. Some places like the old town of Istanbul, Hagia Sophia and Troja are among the UNESCO world heritage.
