My friends, hello everyone! "Muratpasha" is a district ofAntalya, ancient buildings and buildings, mostly here guides bring tourists from Belek, Alanya and the surrounding area.
At the beginning of the summer I had a family vacation in Belek, I chose a hotel (seal) vacation, it is understandable with children, especially with a small spinogryz, there is no other option, the main thing for them is a pool and a lot of sweets)).
So on the 3rd day of rest at the hotel, I got tired, I decided that I needed to explore the surroundings and take a walk. Somehow I decided quickly and spontaneously. The children and the spouse gathered quickly. It means that he went outside the hotel, there is a nickel nearby, there are local "taxi drivers" yellow vans.
And one local taxi driver started offering me his transportation services in his Turkish. My wife started saying let's take an interest in how much it costs and took a taxi, this Turk charged me $ 150 there and back for a distance of 20 km.
I say "chok teshekkur" (thank you very much" and turned around, this Turk immediately went down to the 100th, then I waved my hand "like fuck you @pu" he immediately $ 70. I don't know why, but I didn't like this Turk.
I walked further down the street, the heat is on the street, my friends started to get nervous, I say be patient, I'll find a car now.
I go and notice a bunch of cars parked in a row near an ordinary store, with a sign on top saying "ren to car" (car rental) I quickly go into the store and negotiate with the owner of the car, I break the price from $ 70 to $ 50 per day. I take a diesel Renault with a conder and automatic transmission. I filled up exactly 5 liters of diesel, for a liter of ours somewhere 450-500tg if I'm not mistaken.
And he drove towards Antalya.
The journey takes a maximum of 40-50 minutes, taking into account traffic jams.
I got there fine without any fuss, no one left from the local cops.
By the way, the Yandex navigator works here, I used it to get to the Muratpasha area and parked my car in the parking lot. I pulled out a stroller for a small one and let's wander)).
The area is aimed mainly at tourists, the local Turks are brazenly throwing up prices for every little thing that is sometimes cheaper to buy from us.)
This area is built up with ancient buildings and buildings. Some of them are 300-400 years old. The streets, or rather the streets, are very narrow, noticeably European notes, restaurants, coffee shops, hotels, hostels are everywhere at every step, you can get lost here in two fingers.
I purposefully searched for 2 locations, the first is an observation deck and the second is an ancient mosque.
Prices in restaurants are expensive, you can say they artificially inflate for tourists like us. But we didn't do it with a finger, we saw through their trick in time. Be careful when paying the bill (it's scary).
Then, when you present them, they ask for a thousand apologies. But the "sediment" and "unpleasant" impression remains forever)).
I bent them down a little for such an act, they brought sweets as an apology, etc.
You can come here once purely for a photo shoot, no more. See ancient buildings, have a snack and that's it.
Otherwise, there is nothing to do here.
Prices for hotels and hostels are different, but they are convenient for those who come alone, maximum two in pairs. And for those who are a family with children, it is not an option to choose a hotel here at all.
In the past, I always wanted to visit Turkey, especially Antalya.
Will I come here again, rather no than yes.
To summarize: the Turks themselves, it doesn't matter the hotel staff, or just the locals got caught up and left altogether.
The prices are expensive here, there is no respect for tourists. Just walk through the streets of Belek or Antalya, you will understand right away.
In the Emirates, I spent half the price with my whole family, despite the fact that I had everything included. And the attitude of the staff, the service was much better than in Turkey.

Very tasty! We sat together. The guys decided who would be our waiter, as we spoke three languages. As a result, excellent service, jokes, laughter! The dishes are served normally, but the taste exceeds all expectations! Thanks! Prosperity institution)
