Alanya Ataturk House Museum

Reviewed By Jane2003rugby - Kingston-upon-Hull, United Kingdom

Nice looking house, even better inside. Open 8.30 am - 19.00 pm. FREE TO VISIT. You have to put your bags in a locker at the entrance, which is free. Lots of steps to get inside, & 2 floors to visit, so not suitable for disabled people, or pushchairs. Toilets inside. Ground floor, find the history of Ataturk himself & his rise to power. Next floor living quarters with furniture & traditional clothing, well looked after, explanations in English, friendly staff but don't speak much English.

Excellent sand sculptures.. others recommended going around sunset time so you can see the sculptures in day light and also when lit up at night. We couldn’t go that time, but still enjoyed it. Spent about 30 minutes there
