Olympos

Olympos is an ancient city located at the foot of Mount Tahtali. It was founded by pirates presumably in the 3rd century BC, quickly grew and became one of the largest cities in Lycia. In 42 BC, when the Romans settled here, a new round of development begins near the city.

You can see a large number of buildings that have been preserved in the city from the period of the Roman Empire. Once upon a time, many buildings, baths, roads, water pipes and even a temple were built here. The entrance to the temple has survived to this day and you can see it. You will be amazed how huge it is – more than 4 meters in height. It remains only to guess what size the whole temple was.

Buildings from the Byzantine period have also been preserved – the ruins of the basilica and the priest’s house. In addition, you can see the remains of an amphitheater and several Lycian tombs and sarcophagi.

After the capture of the city by the Ottoman Empire, it fell into disrepair, people left Olympos. Historians still do not know the reasons for this.

You will have 1.5 hours to walk around the ancient city in the shade of laurel and fig trees, get acquainted with the history of the surroundings and swim in the turquoise waters of the local bay of the same name. The beach here is wild, but one of the most beautiful on the entire coast. This place is ideal for a relaxing holiday and unity with nature.

Volcano

One of the main attractions of Kemer is the fiery mountain Yanartash. It is famous for its “fire-breathing Chimera”, which is located on its top and is a unique natural phenomenon.

In the bowels of the mountain there is a large deposit of natural gas, which, having accumulated, seeps between its cracks and ignites already on the surface. This is a truly amazing sight, the “eternal flame”, which you will see with your own eyes. You will be amazed by hundreds of bonfires literally growing out of the mountain. You won’t see this anywhere else!

It is with Mount Yanartash that a huge number of legends are associated. According to one of them, many centuries ago, a terrible Chimera settled on the top of the mountain, which had the head of a lion, the body of a goat and the tail of a snake. The fire-breathing Chimera terrorized the locals for many years, attacked and killed, until one day the glorious hero Bellerophon flew up the mountain on Pegasus and killed her, throwing her inside the mountain. Since then, she has unleashed her fury in the form of flames.

Since ancient times, this phenomenon was treated with respect, they considered Mount Yanartash, which translates as “burning stone”, a holy place and worshiped it. For lost sailors, it served as a kind of beacon. Many historians believe that the myth of the never-going Olympic flame is associated with it.

To get to Mount Yanartash, you have to climb a 700-meter staircase, but it’s worth it! You will then have a full hour to explore the unique landmark and take amazing memorable photos.

Ulupınar

Ulupinar is a small village located at the foot of the Taurus Mountains and in close proximity to Mount Yanartas. It is famous for its amazing restaurants, which are located on the river and literally swim in spring water.

Additionally, you can order any drinks to your taste.

The murmur of the river right under your feet, the fresh mountain and forest air, as well as a delicious dinner will be the perfect end to the day.
