Hurtige fakta: Over 5.000 genstande fylder 13 udstillingshaller, der spænder fra den palæolitiske æra til den osmanniske periode. Museets samling omfatter stykker fra de antikke byer Perge, Aspendos og Side, alle udgravet i den omkringliggende region.
Højdepunkter: Museets kronjuvel er "Den grædende Herakles" sarkofagen, et udsøgt 2. århundredes marmormesterværk, der viser heltens tolv arbejder i betagende detaljer. Udskåret af en enkelt marmorblok blev sarkofagen smuglet ud af Tyrkiet i 1960'erne og først returneret efter en årelang juridisk kamp med Getty Museet.
Insidertips
- Skip the audio guide and instead use the free explanatory plaques, which are detailed and in English.
- The open-air sculpture garden behind the main building offers excellent photo opportunities with natural lighting around mid-morning.
- Spend extra time in the Hall of Gods and Emperors, where statues from Perge show remarkably intact Roman-era paint traces.
- Combine your visit with a trip to the nearby Hadrian's Gate and Marina for a full day of Antalya's history.
