Antalya Ancient City Excursions
Known as the "tourism paradise" in our country, Antalya has always been a prominent city that accepts thousands of visitors every year, with its natural beauties of clean air and deep blue sea and historical cities dating back to ancient times. For those who are bored of the "sea, sand, sun" trio and those who are curious about the deep waters of history, here are the ancient cities of Antalya...
Myra Ancient City
Myra, one of the tourism spots of the Mediterranean coast, attracts a lot of attention with its ancient open-air theater and rock cemeteries. With its 2500 years of history and an image that sheds light on history, Myra is also famous for its flamboyant tombs, gigantic theater and hosting Santa Claus, the famous Santa Claus of Christmas. Located in Demre district, the ancient city is 145 km from the center of Antalya.
Olympos (Olympos) Ancient City
The city of Olympos, located in Kumluca district of Antalya, seems to have a different magic besides other cities. The word Olympos, known as the "home of the gods" in mythology, adds to the magic of this city. The ancient city of Olympos is also located in the "Lycia" region, which reflects our history a lot. Lycia is a region of ancient cities and its name means "land of light". This makes the cities here always more interesting.
Side Ancient City
The ancient city of Side, whose name means "pomegranate", that is, "fertility, abundance", reflects this meaning to us with its appearance. The buildings in the ancient city of Side, which is built on a peninsula with a width of about 400 meters, also prove that it is the most important port city in the Pamphylia region.
Aspendos Ancient City
Another very important ancient city in the Pamphylia region is the ancient city of Aspendos, which everyone has heard of. Although it is known to be one of the richest settlements in the region, its foundation is said to date back to the 12th century BC. At the same time, the world-famous Trojan War is thought to have led to the foundation of Aspendos.
