Rested with family in Kemer. We could not refuse with our son the pleasure of visiting this beautiful place again. No sooner said than done. We came to the Clock Tower to stop dolmush. they waited for the right one, which had the inscription Kemer-Kirish-Chamyuova-Faselis-Antik-Tekirova on the windshield. In 2015, the fare from Tekirova cost 3 Turkish liras. But in 2019, the fare from Kemer cost 6 Turkish liras. Accordingly, for one person.

The trip did not take long and we are standing in front of the ticket office. The cost of a ticket for one person in 2015 was 10 Turkish liras, but in 2019 we paid 36 Turkish liras for one person. There was a small queue at the cash desk, which we did not see in 2015. The queue quickly dissipated. Having bought tickets, we went to the territory of the complex.

The ancient city of Phaselis has a North Port and a South Harbor (according to Yandex Maps). The road from the checkpoint to the ancient city is still very picturesque and passes through a mixed forest.
The distance is about 1 kilometer. We arrived in the morning. So there was no heat. We went all the way pretty quickly. And at the meeting ruins, we began to take pictures.

Significant differences have been noticed over the past 4 years. Signs appeared, including in Russian, the territory was ennobled, cleared of fallen trees, benches for rest were installed, so that the money is spent for its intended purpose. And it pleases. Still noticed a lot of tourists. Both independent and groups brought by tour operators "Pegas Touristik", "Annex Tour", "Tez Tour". It is best to visit this place on your own, because with a group the visit will be like a race. On the Internet you can read about the ancient city of Phaselis. Approaching the ancient city on the left we will see the ruins of the Temple. On Google maps it is marked as Tapinak.
