Very interesting and atmospheric place. The Lycians at a certain stage of their civilization buried nobles and nobility in man-made tombs carved at a height in the rocks, such a tomb could be carved for 20 years and began to be made even when its customer was 15-20 years old. There are several Lycian necropolises on the territory of Southern Turkey, there are abandoned ones that can be viewed for free, there are ennobled complexes.
Entrance to the necropolis in Fethiye costs only 5 lira (that's one dollar)
In principle, you can see them for free without entering the territory of the tombs themselves, but passing by along the street, they are located right along the street near a rocky cliff almost in the center of the city near a private residential area. Opposite there is a cafe.
Highly recommend to lovers of history, antiquity, architecture, architecture and art. A very interesting place.
