High on the slopes of Cebelireis Mountain, about 11 km east of Alanya, Dim Cave is one of the largest show caves open to tourism in Turkey. A gently lit walkway winds roughly 360 metres past towering stalactites, dramatic stalagmites and shimmering rock curtains, ending at a small, still underground lake. Cool and refreshing inside whatever the season, the cave makes an ideal escape from the Mediterranean heat. Its entrance terrace rewards visitors with sweeping views over the green Dim Valley and the river far below.
