Turkey: ancient fortress of Termessos

Termessos is a great place to spend one day on. It’s located near Antalya city center. It will take you half an hour to get there by car or you can take a bus to Korkuteli from Antalya bus station. Just tell the driver that you are going to Termessos and he will drop you where it needed. Go there early in the morning. The site is located on top of the mountain of the national Park. If you have no car, it will take you nearly 2 hours to get to the ruins or you can hitchhike that will definitely save your time. It will also take you 2 hours to explore the area of the ancient city. Just at the entrance, you will see a necropolis which I recommend to explore. There are lots of well preserved tombs, you’ll see beautiful, carvings on them. Then explore the acropolis with its Theatre, Hamam, library, Agora and many more. For adventure enthusiasts, the surrounding trails offer scenic hikes that lead to stunning viewpoints, providing a different perspective of the ancient city.#antalya #turkey #ancientcity #termessos #trip #hikeinturkey
