Damlataş Cave sits at the edge of Cleopatra Beach in Alanya. The interior stays warm and exceptionally humid all year, which draws visitors hoping to ease respiratory issues. The cave's walkway zigzags past compact chambers where mineral formations line the walls and ceiling.

For a quick, cool break from the beach heat and cave air that some locals swear by for asthma relief.
