Phaselis

The ancient city of Phaselis was a Roman and Greek settlement. Its ruins today are found in Tekirova, Kemer in the Antalya province. The 24m wide main street of the city still exists and along its sides are the ruins of stores and shops. The ruins of public places, such as the large and small Roman baths, the Tetragonal Agora, and Domitianus Agora are also seen on the side of the main street.

The Gate of Hadrian stands intricate with patterns and inscriptions, whereas the Theatre and its seating arrangements and stage are relatively well preserved. The North and South ports and the water canals that cut across the city are other reminders of the past. There are also several sarcophagi or funeral boxes that can be found at Phaselis. One can also visit the beaches at the northern and southern harbors, though there are no facilities, such as showers or changing rooms. There is also a museum building inside the Olympos National Park that can be visited while exploring Phaselis. Located between the lovely Bey Mountains and the Olympos National Park it is surrounded by three bays and harbors.
