Liman was the first vivid impression of my "second home" - the Kemer, when I arrived here for the first time in March 2022. We rented for a few days cool apartments on the second floor, which had windows overlooking this luxurious main tourist avenue "Liman", which means port in Turkish.

It was too expensive to live here. Since then, we have changed 9 different apartments and hotels, and here we are lucky to find an airbnb apartment at an affordable price on "Liman" street, on the third floor, with beautiful views of the man-made river with fountains and the dark blue mountains of Kemeru...

My admiration knew no bounds when I first approached the panoramic window and looked at this beauty from a bird's eye view. I walk here every day, but from above the main street of Kemeru looks like a beautiful picturesque painting!
Men - sellers of fashion boutiques - are sitting under a sprawling tree. They add pleasure to their sedentary lives by drinking tea and playing backgammon 😊

I went out the back entrance, which also has great views of Kemeru's houses and the crimson clouds above them.
And I was inspired to describe all the unique features and interesting moments of the life of this street. After all, it filled my weekend with a special meaning, memorable moments about my life in Kemer, on Liman, where every step has a special meaning.

And here is my house, where our apartment is located on the 3rd floor. I went out onto the avenue and immersed myself in the quiet, unhurried rhythm of life in a tourist town. And Turkish cats create a special charm here, as respectable residents of the city :)

Cats against the background of flowers look very beautiful. They sit on the bank of the river and jump over the water.

Amazing exotic orange flowers create a beautiful picture against the background of white houses and dark blue mountains! Today the weather was particularly favorable for taking good shots. There were dark clouds in the sky, and the sun's rays illuminated the flowers, palms and trees.

A special feature of this street is the glass bridges with transparent railings across this man-made river. And the little palm trees on the shore look so cute.

There are also small orange trees. I once tried to pick these oranges, but they are decorative and tasteless :)

Between the houses there are passages that lead to mysterious courtyards...
And so, moving along the avenue in the direction of the sea, I passed the Turkcell mobile communications center.
Further here is the LC Waikiki shopping center.

The names of the shops are sometimes striking with their exoticism. For example, "London"! Here you can buy anything on the Liman.

At the end of the avenue is the famous "Pirate" outdoor bar, which we talked about earlier. There used to be fun shows every night, but the season is over and now it's quiet...

At the end of the avenue on the right is a fruit shop and if you are not trying to save money, you can always buy fresh fruit here, but the prices are quite high.

Along Liman avenue we come to the main park. There is a cozy and beautiful fountain "Dolphin". In the summer, people walk here until late. I made a video to convey to you the charm of this place that will lead us to the sea. The colorful arch in the form of hearts is the highlight.

Here on the beach there is a municipal cafe "Deniz", where on weekends many Turkish families spend time talking and listening to songs.

My walk ends with a swim in the Mediterranean Sea. It is an exciting feeling - to swim in November on the eve of winter!

I walked on this street as well. I didn't know that its name is Liman. It was very crowded and full of tourists in the season as there are mostly shops.

This street is really the face of Kemer, which made a fantastic impression on me!

Wow! The place is very beautiful. No wonder it's expensive there. If you don't mind me asking are only the locals there had the right to own a house?

I do not know such details

Ah ok. But the place is very splendid.

Living on 3rd floor apartment would be a nice experience and it provides you Ariel view of man made river full of fountains. I live on second floor and from window I see green colour mountains of Islamabad which are fully green and gives relief to my mind and to my eyes.

It is truly an incredible experience and will be memories of our life in Kemer.

Liman looks so beautiful
I love the pictures
I guess staying on the third floor will give you the privilege to see the down view just from your room

It is very pleasant to get up in the morning, go out on the balcony and see the life of the main street of Kemer.

I was here last summer and had a great time. I am happy to see these streets again in someone else's post.

I'm glad: You saw familiar places and remembered the good time spent here

Oh my God, see those mind blowing view 😍

I'm glad you liked 💞

This is a place to visit for sure, I mean every place looks beautiful. The photos are amazing to view. It seems the Turkish cats was kinda entertaining the people in the background, I can see all eyes on him or it could be that they were looking at something else.

Turkish cats are a pleasant part of Kemer life :)

Very beautiful view

Thank you 😊

I heard it's getting cold in Turkey, but it looks like you're dressing up and it's still hot. So this kind of view is very beautiful. The more beautiful the place, the more expensive it is, and the more beautiful the price, the more expensive it is because everything costs money to manage.

It is very warm in the Antalya region, still 18-20° warm during the day.

Олю! У мене вже бракує слів, аби виразити своє захоплення місцями, де ви буваєте!)))

Дякую за вашу прихильність :)

Thank you for your support 😊
