Arriving in Turkey, we already have an idea about the nature and weather conditions of this country. We expect to see sandy beaches, blue seas, mountains and valleys, but every time Turkey brings pleasant surprises in the form of unique natural places, such as the white cliffs of Pamukkale, the cave cities of Cappadocia, Lake Salda reminiscent of the Maldives.

Resting in Turkey, we do not expect to be on an exotic island or in a tropical forest, but here we are in for a surprise. There is a canyon on the Mediterranean coast in the province of Antalya surrounded by rocks rushing into the sky with a cascade of waterfalls, emerald water and shores immersed in greenery.

Having visited this place at least once, you will want to stay here forever, enjoy the picturesque views, crystal clear water and the gentle sun away from the bustle of the city and noisy megacities.

Located at an altitude of 350m. above sea level Green Canyon is an artificially created reservoir, it is the largest not only in Alanya, but throughout Turkey. The water in the canyon is always cool and crystal clear, as 27 natural springs flow here.

The reservoir was formed as a result of the construction of a hydroelectric power station, its depth is about 100 meters, and its length is 14 km. The water here has an exceptional turquoise-emerald hue, from which the Green Canyon in Alanya got its name.
