An amazing place, it is unclear how many years ago people lived far and high in the mountains, there were apparently a lot of them there if they built such an amphitheater, on the way to this place there are beautiful views of the mountains and the devil's stones. yes, and correctly written here earlier, local saleswomen of trinkets immediately swoop in, I even thought that this was some kind of tour group, but no, they are following you in a crowd. I didn't buy anything, because I didn't need it, I gave a dollar to a little girl.

The "city" itself is one half-preserved amphitheater, the rest was stolen by the locals as building materials. In fact, there is nothing to see exactly as an ancient city (in comparison, there is a perfectly preserved Aspendos amphitheater 30 km below). But the road to this village is very picturesque, through the mountains with a lot of beauty, you will not regret it. The road itself is quite normal, you can safely get there on an ordinary sedan, no jeeping tours are necessary.

We arrived in a rented car. The road to the village itself is simple and beautiful, further along the village it was difficult. We left the car on the outskirts and walked to the amphitheater. If you don't see the amphitheater for the first time in your life, you won't be impressed) we watched antiquities for the first time in the vicinity of Kemer - that's where wow) if I knew or read the reviews, I wouldn't go) although the serpentine here with awesome views.
With grandmothers, yes, the problem is) not very pleasant, some kind of psychological pressure. We escaped from them through the back of the amphitheater.

An amazing place, a must-visit, especially if you are traveling by car! A huge ancient city, on the ruins of which a fairly large Turkish village could even be located. At the entrance to the amphitheater, I recommend trying pies with cheese and herbs from grandma, it is very tasty and costs a penny. A couple of aunts who sell beads are pestering, but this is not a problem

There are a lot of stones here.)
The guide said that a long time ago there was a sea here, but over time it drained, forming many stone columns. Some of them have holes inside which you can find sand or a shell. It is rare to find houses standing alone, but they are residential.
The city itself is very high. While my ears were getting up a couple of times.)
They don't do farming in the city, although the acres of land at each site are huge. It's all the fault of the stones that prevent the crop from germinating. You can't get rid of the stones, because new ones appear every year.
The locals, mostly elderly people, earn as much as they can from tourists by selling them trinkets. And the children study here until the 4th grade, then they are taken to larger cities: Side, Antalya, Manavgat.
And there is an ancient theater here. Many people think that this is the colosseum, but it is too small for fighting.

For 20 bucks for two, it's a lot, persuade your driver for 5 for two. The visit itself is free. The road is picturesque. The village is authentic. I recommend.

It's free, but there are only ruins of the theater here
As soon as you enter, local women fly up, sniff trinkets and demand money, accompany you all the way, demand money, do not let you enjoy the beauty. It's better to go to Perga-it's much more interesting there, and there are no beggars

Suddenly, after 50 km along the serpentine and after the road on which a donkey cannot pass, there is an amphitheater with 10 thousand seats.
