About this audio guide
This guide to Düden Waterfalls in Antalya follows the Düden River's disappearance into a sinkhole eighteen kilometers away and its resurgence here, carved through the region's limestone karst. It traces the legend that Alexander the Great watered his horses at these falls during his march through Pamphylia, and the ancient name Antalya gave them on its coins. Walk toward the cave behind the curtain of water; the sound changes as you step inside.
