Pass through the elegant arches of Hadrian’s Gate on to Atatürk
Caddesi and turn right for the Atatürk Museum (open 8:30am-5pm,
closed Monday; free). The house, which Atatürk visited between
1930 and 1935, has a collection of evocative photographs and some of
his personal belongings ranging from a gramophone to his pajamas.
Farther along the same road, past rows of shops, restaurants and bars,
is a strip of mass-market hotels. Many overhang the cliffs above Lara
Beach (10 km/six miles to the east of the city center). Just before you
get to the beach are the Lower Düden Falls, which crash down the
rocks into the sea. They are best seen from a boat.
