Ask what to do in Defne and the honest answer is usually 'Antakya, five minutes away' — fair enough. But turn toward Harbiye and the mood shifts: laurel in the air, running water, tea gardens stepping down the hillside. Go as far as Vakıflı and you find a different kind of village quiet altogether. This is an area still rebuilding after the earthquake, so come without expectations and just sit — no need to make a thing of it. Roll the dice and let the Harbiye hillside sort out the rest.
