Antalya Sand Sculpture Museum admission ticket

The Antalya Sand Sculpture Museum (SANDLAND) stands as one of the world's oldest, most esteemed and largest sculpture events. Since its inception in 2006, it has consistently expanded in terms of beach area, participating artists, and volume of sand utilized, resulting in an exhibition featuring hundreds of colossal sand sculptures. These works of art are crafted from 10 thousand tons of river sand spread over a 7 thousand square meter area on the renowned Lara Beach in Antalya. These sand masterpieces are the culmination of three weeks of hard work by professional artists from around the globe. This year's theme, "A SPACE ADVENTURE", takes you on a chronological journey through humanity's exploration of space, presented in an engaging and educational manner. You'll discover sculptures related to notable figures and milestones in space history such as Leonardo da Vinci, Galileo, the Wright Brothers, Hazerfen Çelebi, Zeplin, Yuri Gagarin, Neil Armstrong, and a Mars Space Colony, among others. You'll have the chance to gaze at the sun, moon, and planets on a large screen through powerful telescopes. Furthermore, you can also experience a human gyroscope that simulates a zero-gravity environment, similar to those used in astronaut training. This provides a distinctive experience for both young and old. At night, the exhibition area transforms into an enchanted setting as the sculptures are illuminated with LED lighting systems and accompanied by themed music.
