Why go

Few cities in southern Turkey connect so many periods in one place. The Hatay Archaeology Museum is associated with Roman mosaics, while the rock-cut Church of St Peter and Habib-i Neccar Mosque point to different religious histories. Antakya’s old streets and Orontes setting add the urban context.

What to look for

  • The Hatay Archaeology Museum is known for Roman mosaics.
  • The Church of St Peter is cut into rock.
  • Habib-i Neccar Mosque reflects the Ottoman layer of the city.

Useful to know

  • Confirm current access to museums and monuments before traveling.
  • Keep the city center and more distant Orontes-valley sites as separate outings.
