This place is simply unimaginable. I will remember this historical atmosphere for the rest of my life. The tour is very capacious, so be sure to take it. Also, the road here left a very strong impression on me, these huge stones and paths - in a word, it’s definitely worth going.

The air here is amazing, the views are great. It's really hard to get here. However, the beauty and sensations justify the means : ) It is worth walking 3-4 kilometers along the not very comfortable road up. In general, the whole of Antalya is amazing!

In fact, there is nothing supernatural in this place. We remember and liked the road to the ruins themselves more - it took about 40 minutes at a walking pace (up the mountain). Those who have never been to the ancient ruins will definitely appreciate it.
