Altnbeşik Cave in Antalya’s Ibradi drew 100,000 visitors in 10 months. A daily average of 350–400 people use excursion boats to explore the wonders of Altnbeşik Cave. Hasan Yaman, the staff member of Brad Municipality, stated that the lake, which is turquoise in color due to its soda water, provides a visual feast to visitors with the lights filtering into the cave. Pointing out that it is the third cave in the world and the only cave in Turkey where boat tours can be made, Yaman said, “We had a good season in terms of tourism this year. In addition to domestic tourists, we hosted especially foreign tourists more.”
