Antalya's major park with the all-but-unpronouncable name is just east of Kaleiçi in the city center, easily reached on foot or by tram.

This is where Antalyalilar come in the heat of the day for shade and a breeze, or for a stroll in the cool of evening.

The mayor's office is here, and a city theater, but of more interest to visitors is the ancient fortress tower overlooking the Roman harbor, the falez (cliffs) and the broad blue expanse of the Gulf of Antalya.

Admission to the park is free, it's always open, and always inviting.

The park's name, by the way, means "Son of Black Ali," and is pronounced kah-RAH-ah-LEE-oh-loo. That's not so difficult, is it?
