Oba is a popular area of Alanya, located east of the city center, divided into “Lower Oba” - an area adjacent to the sea, there are many five-story buildings and the activity of the city, and “Upper Oba”, located among the pure freshness of the mountains and growing due to new buildings with huge infrastructure and beautiful views.
The relocation of the administrative center contributes to the development of the area; there is all the infrastructure for life and recreation: there are shopping centers, schools, colleges, a university, kindergartens, sports fields. There are both grocery stores at every step, several grocery supermarkets Migros and Carrefour, and a Metro hypermarket. It is in Oba that Alanya’s largest shopping center Alanuum is located, next to it is a four-story home goods store Salı Pazarı with reasonable prices and a huge selection of goods from furniture to household items. And once a week in the Oba area there is a food market - it works on Mondays and occupies a long street, offering a huge selection of fresh food, clothes and things.
The beaches along the entire embankment of the Oba district are sandy and pebble with a gentle slope; in some places there are natural slabs of stones. The embankment is very beautiful, equipped with playgrounds and sports facilities. The area is popular for living among Turks, Europeans and Russian speakers. It is located close to the center of Alanya, has good transport links, and apartments and hotels here are cheaper than in the center.
In winter the bustle is quieter, but the area continues to live actively as a full-fledged city with all its advantages and at the same time with access to healing natural resources and the warm clean waters of the Mediterranean Sea.
