Alara Han
It was built on a spot 9 km north of the Alara Stream that forms the border between Alanya and Manavgat, and 45 km from Manavgat.
The Alara Caravanserai, which is 35 km from Alanya, had been built by Sultan Alaaddin Keykubat in 1231 from cut stones and on an area of 2000m2.
The second gate on the Caravanserai’s entry, leads to where the visitors accommodate. This is a worth seeing structure with its guardroom, fountain that even today preserves its functionality, small mosque and hamam.
The two lion heads on the gate entry are spectacular. Currently, it only serves as a daily tourism facility.
