WOW, I was not expecting such a lavish museum filled with spectacular mosaics. Hatay's Archaeological Museum, which was renovated in 2014, is a must see! If you can organize a trifold museum trip , then do see the museums Gaziantep/Sanliurfa and Hatay during a regional trip. If you can organize this, then you will get the full spectrum of Anatolian history. All three of these museums are a must-experience, and are very different than the 'feel' of museums in Istanbul. ( that's another post) DO plan to spend at least 2 hours at the museum, and at least 20 minutes at the cafe. Anything less won't do it justice. THe mosaics here are chronologically displayed, and are from 2-6 BC. I have NEVER seen such beautiful mosaics in my life, each one is spectacular. There is also a very intricate collection of coins, and royal 'stamps' in addition to beautiful statues of most of the Roman/Anatolian Goddesses ( and Gods). There is a cafe located on the second floor of the museum overlooking 2 mosaics that are displayed on an opposite wall. It's the perfect place to stop and have a cup of coffee/tea/sandwich. It's great to just sit in the presence of these masterpieces and just soak it all in. On your way out, stop at the gift shop. They have a rich selection of books and replicas. Further, the local 'silk' and 'soap' products were authentic and high quality, all from the region. This particular museum is located in the city center, and there are 'minibus'es that literally go straight down the main avenue connecting the museum to the 'heart' of the shopping district. The one way price was 2 TL ( currently about 40 cents?), and a taxi ride from the city center to the museum is about 20 TL. ( 5 USD) both are safe and comfortable.

I've visited almost all major museums in Turkey and also some of the prominent ones in Europe and can safely say that this is one of the best that I've ever seen. It's not only because of the historical monuments, but also due to the smart design of the building. Starting from the paleolitic ages, the museum offers a kind of time-travel with its large collection of sculptures, ruins, tombs, stunning massive mosaics and coins. What I like most about the museum is that it consists of different types of ruins on the contrary to some museums which focus on specific artefacts like mosaics in Zeugma or like Greek/Roman sculptures in Antalya Archeological Museum. It's a pity that the statue of King Idrimi was moved to the London in 1930s and now is being exhibited in British Museum. I believe all historical heritages should be kept in their own places and hope the statue will return to its home in the future, along with other smuggled ancient artefacts from this soil.

It was an incredible experience for me. Mosaics were amazing. And a lot of historical stuffs were there. Regular and well thought museum. Also it's really big. A lot of monuments from Roman Empire. Also there is a part which you can find out a documentary about how the city has built. Personally, the most fascinating part was the room with sarcophaguses. I could see details of Byzantium and Roman architecture. And the culture of their cemeteries. Mosaics were really located well and lightning well. There's a chronological placement regulation. Rooms were numbered chronological. Its possible to find some stuffs from the beginning of humanity also. It was really amazing. I suggest this museum to everyone who's gonna visit Antioch. You won't be regret guys.

Drunken Dionysus. This guy is the god of wine and entertainment. In this picture the scene is described to show how this guy lost his balance and about to fall. He could only stand up with the support of Satyr. He is under heavy influence of alcohol and so careless that he pours the wine from the bottle into the mouth of a thirsty panther drinking all his booze. King Suppiluliuma. He reigned as a king believed to be assigned by God as a protector. This guy suffered from insomnia. That is why he has wide-open eyes as he never slept. Ishtar lady of Alalakh. The largest temple is devoted to this altar of goddess Ishtar for more than 1000 years starting from 2000BC until 900BC..

The museum was moved last year to here. Previous place of this museum was in city centre but not big enough but new place is more bigger but far from city centre. I love the chronological path in the museum first path starts with cage life of humans and ends with modern day. Mosaics are well preserved and mosaics were like photographs. The only disadvantage of this path I couldn't find path milestones as described it was complex for me to understand how designated path goes. I started area 1 and I found myself at area 13 after 30 minutes but I think that was my fault that's why I give 5 star. When you see 480p resolution mosaics you understand why I gave star.
