How to Get to Murat Pasha Mosque, Antalya#

Murat Paşa Mosque is in Kaleiçi (Antalya’s old town) near Antalya Harbour. From Antalya Airport (AYT) it is about 13 km to Kaleiçi; drive west along the D400/Atatürk Boulevard into the old town (roughly 20-30 minutes depending on traffic). Airport shuttle services (Havaş) and local buses run to the city center; from central Kaleiçi or Hadrian’s Gate the mosque is an easy 5-15 minute walk through the old‑town streets toward the marina.

If arriving by intercity bus, get off at Antalya Otogar (main bus station) and take a short taxi or local bus/tram into Kaleiçi, then walk to the mosque - the old town is compact and most landmarks are within a short walking distance of each other.

The mosque sits in Antalya's old town (Kaleiçi), so combine it with a short walking loop that includes Hadrian's Gate and the old harbour rather than making a separate trip.
