A super place, the amazing power of ancient buildings, visited as if in a movie or a fairy tale, is definitely worth a visit!!! We went there by car at the end of October, there was no snow yet.

I dreamed of getting to these places. there are practically no Russians here, but in vain. tours are mainly in Turkish and English, with a Russian-speaking guide only on request. we rented a car (there was a bit of a hitch there) and we were taken to the mountain in the evening. while you're going up there are benches, take a drink with you (it's better to have hot tea in a thermos, we were at the end of October), it's cold upstairs. you can't buy food and coffee nearby, but there's no place for that either (although I would put a cafe with tea downstairs). but the view is amazing!!!! you can even touch the monuments in some places. Many thanks to all the Turks who were on our way! You're great!

This shrine stands on the top of Mount Nemrut, at an altitude of more than 2000 meters above sea level. It was built by order of Antiochus I Epiphanes (69-34 BC), the ruler of the ancient Armenian kingdom of Commagene.
Antiochus had Persian roots from his father and Greek from his mother, and this ethnic mix was reflected in the architecture of the majestic tomb, which was to glorify his name forever. A large 150-meter mound of fine stone is surrounded by terraces decorated with statues of ancestors, gods and animals. Among the images carved in stone are Zeus, Apollo, Hercules and Antiochus himself.
Archaeologists explored the tomb in the 19th century, and in 1987 the ancient architectural monuments were included in the UNESCO World Heritage List.

A grandiose place, a must-visit. It's hard to climb to the top, but the views from there to the surroundings compensate for everything.

A touch of history. Thousands of meters up. Tens of centuries. Beautiful mountain views. It is not suitable for people with limited mobility.

Delight. A great attraction. To be above the clouds. To see the unique sculptures. Admission costs a little money. It is better to arrive at sunrise.

The place is amazing, the impressions of a trip for a lifetime, we drove by car from Mersin in May 2022, were surprised by the wonderful roads high in the mountains, drove by car using Yandex Navigator to the foot. The level of bygone civilizations is amazing! How is it possible to build a 50-meter-high mound of fine gravel on a two-kilometer mountain?! The views from the mountain itself are like on Mars: lifeless beauty. It remains to be hoped that the earthquake of 2022 did not damage this historical masterpiece and spared the friendly and hospitable inhabitants of these places.

In winter, when it's deserted, it's very beautiful here.
Silence and heads)
There are two roads leading here, one is short and good, the other is long and beautiful.

It can't be compared to photos in person. Antiochus in all its glory on both sides of the mountain.

I consider this place a must-visit if you are in those parts, it is better, of course, at dawn or dusk. From the parking lot, you are taken by minibuses to the beginning of the trail and you still have to walk along the equipped trail for another 15 minutes.
