Welcome!
I'm pleased with your personal visit on my website on the Antakya / Hatay region in Turkey.
Despite its long history, Antakya is not well known in the world until now.
Though there is much to see and to experience.
In addition to Saint Peter's Curch, the first christian community of the world,
where the first missionary journey of apostle Paul has began,
there are wonderful beaches, the mountains of Amanos with snow until late spring,
Armenian villages and plenty of beautiful mosques in the region.
The sweet dessert “kunefe” is defenitely a culinary highlight, originally
available only in this region.
You will find much information and plenty of images on this website.
The background information is complemented by live viewing webcams showing Antakya,
the mountains of Amanos and the Syrian border. Additionally you will find current
weather and climate data in order to assist the planning of your journeys.
I'm looking forward to your suggestions and reviews.
