Discover the historic villages, traditional button houses and beautiful autumn scenery of the Taurus Mountains on this relaxing full-day cultural and photography tour from Alanya.
Our journey begins with a scenic drive of approximately 1.5 hours from Alanya to Akseki, where we stop for breakfast and a short break. We then continue to İbradı to visit its magnificent monumental chestnut tree, believed to be around 1,000 years old. With its impressive trunk and remarkable history, this ancient tree is one of the area's natural landmarks.
Our next destination is Ormana, a charming village famous for its traditional button houses. These distinctive buildings, constructed using a unique combination of timber and stone, reflect the architectural heritage of the Taurus Mountains.
We explore the narrow village streets, admire the craftsmanship of the historic houses and enjoy plenty of photography opportunities. During our free time, you can wander through the peaceful lanes, browse small local shops or relax with a cup of Turkish coffee while enjoying the village atmosphere.
We then continue to Sarıhacılar, another historic village known for its traditional button houses and ancient stone-paved caravan routes. Here, we take short walks through the village, discovering beautiful architectural details and capturing photographs where autumn colours meet centuries-old stone buildings.
Throughout the day, we travel at a relaxed pace, allowing plenty of time for photography, exploration and enjoying the atmosphere of these remarkable mountain villages.
This tour is ideal for photography enthusiasts, culture lovers and anyone wishing to discover the authentic rural heritage of the Taurus Mountains without undertaking a demanding hike.
