Yesterday
afternoon...I took my children to re-visit these falls..even though we
live here all the time..it has been years since I visited the falls...It
was a lovely day of about 17C.
Düden Waterfalls are a group of
waterfalls in the city of Antalya, Turkey. The waterfall formed by the
Düden River (one of the major rivers in southern Anatolia) is located 12
km north-east of Antalya; which ends where the limpid waters of the
Lower Düden Falls drop off a rocky cliff directly into the Mediterranean
sea in a dazzling show.
The Upper Düden Waterfalls,are located
14 km northeast from the centre of Antalya. The waterfalls, formed by a
karstic depression, are 20 metres high. The location of the waterfalls
has the appearance of a botanical heaven thanks to the rich variety of
plants. In the deep valley formed by the falling and flowing water of
the waterfalls there are promenades and trout restaurants
By
entering into Dilek Magarasi (Cave of Wishes), located underneath the
waterfalls, it is possible to walk behind the rushing cascade or sit and
admire the might and splendour of the waterfalls from inside the
catacombs.
This is also a favourite family picnic area of
Antalya, which draws hundreds of people everyday for the ultimate picnic
experience.
