Exciting Antique Buildings waiting for visitors on the Lycian Way

There are as many beauty as the breathtaking scenery from the ancient cities that will excite you on the Lycian Way starting from Fethiye and extending 500 miles to Antalya.

After passing Oludeniz the road coincides with an ancient road for about 3.5 km. between the waist and the hunter passes through the ancient city of Sidyma

then turn north from letoon to xanthos

PATARA

The road that continues from the northern part of Kalkan passes through the towns of Phellos and Antiphellos in the direction of Kas and reaches the beach.

Antiphellos

When it is continued from the beach, kaletepe, Apollonia when it enters the road again, ancient cities of Aperlai when apollonia is descended again. an Aperlai is great.

It is then continued along the coast from the fortress of Kaleüçağız, Theiimiussa and Simena, and many small ruins are visible (ancient settlement of caldera, ancient settlement of gökkaya, istland)

From the coast of Sourau and from the north of Andriake, the ancient city of Myra is reached by traveling from the north of the Demre

Myra

There are muskar churches around Belören. Passes through the ancient settlement area of the olive district and goes through the Finike, passing through the ancient city Phonikos of Finike. Finike and Kumluca‘s major cities do not pass through Limyra, Aryanda and Rhodiapolis, but I personally recommend that the visitor go by car and see these cities.

Arykanda

 

Rhodiapolis

Along the coast to the lighthouse of Gelidonia. there is melanippe (also known as pirate dark) on the way

then along the eastern shore of the Teke peninsula, you can go up to the fortress by seeing Adrasan, Olympos, khimaira, Phaselis and the castle

Olympos

What you need to know about Lycia is archaeological material everywhere. you will see something constantly as you walk. the fact that the main settlements are located on the remains of the big cities of the time (this is not a bad thing, the people have never left the living there), the other areas are not so intact, the fact that they are not very busy human traffic, the vegetation and the remains of nature protected.

If you walk on the road or see a sculpture, something that seems important, call the related museum. If you see a treasure hunt while walking on the road, call the relevant gendarmay. love the remains, you are not like the cicadas who burn fire in the ancient wall in Melanippe.

This is the culture of the lycian way. a respectful, culturally respectful visit is required. If you will not respect these two, do not go, it is a pity.
