Antalya Hadrian's Gate

Antalya Hadrian's Gate
One of the gates of the old city of Antalya within the walls is the Three Gates or Hadrian's Gate with its historical name. In a sense, Üç Kapılar is one of the best preserved historical buildings in Antalya. This building, which is a Roman work, was built in 130 AD on behalf of the Roman Emperor Hadrian. Over time, the city walls closed the outer part of the door and the door was not used for many years. Probably, the city wall surrounding the city passed in front of the Three Gates, and it also guided a passage that leads to the outside of the castle, which we call Kaleiçi today, at one end of the old city, perhaps one cannot go out, even though it is not in the size of today's three arches.
