The building of the
Archaeological Museum in Antalya ⭐boasts an exhibition space of 30,000 square meters. The exhibits are arranged in several spacious halls, and some of them are placed in the museum garden. The objects that are in the possession of the museum illustrate many thousands of years of human activity in the region of Antalya. Because of the huge number of exhibits and the vastness of its facilities at least half the day is necessary to fully appreciate its wealth.
