Antakya the biblical city of Antioch lies on the Asi River -Orontes- on a fertile plain surrounded by grand mountains. Once the capital of the Seleucid kings it was notorious for its wealth and luxury. In Roman times the city continued to thrive with commerce and culture. It featured prominently in early Christianity as the place where the name Christian was first coined. The Antakya Museum houses one of the richest collections of Roman mosaics in the world -Open weekdays except Monday-. These fantastic mosaics in stone were uncovered mostly at excavations in Antakya and nearby Daphne. Outside the town is the Grotto of Peter the apostle. In 1983 the church was declared a sacred site by the Vatican. Other places of interest include a bustling bazaar and the Mosque of Habib Neccar. Samandag 25 km from Antakya is a resort town with a pristine beach. Seleucia Peria -Cevlik- north of town was founded around 300 B.C. and by the time Paul and Barnabas started on their first missionary journey from here it was a busy port. The most interesting monument to see is the Tunnel of Titus built to divert rain water. Even by todays standards it is a tremendous engineering achievement. You should also drive to the Temple of Zeus at Kapisuyu village for a spectacular panorama of the ancient harbor sandy beach and fertile plain.
