I got to the fortress of Alanya - IchKale - by Teleferik (local cable car). After that there was a strong climb up the stairs and, finally, the longed-for entrance to the fortress. The fortress itself is quite large, without a guide, I quickly got lost and left the path, cut off a large piece and went to its end, not even knowing it. Along the way of my route, there were very beautiful views of Cleopatra Beach, the city and the harbor. Upstairs in the fortress is full of cafes with drinks and sweets, the prices are normal, as for a tourist area. I saw the mosque of Suleiman, but did not go inside. A dervish musician sat under the mosque, very beautifully playing a round metal instrument; threw him a few lire. After the mosque, I deviated to the left and soon came to the exit from the fortress. Recommended for romantics and history buffs!
