The Amyntas Rock Tombs, located on the hill of Fethiye, are ancient tombs built during the Lycian period around the 4th century BC. This tomb, carved along the cliff, has an inscription that reads, ‘Tomb of Amintas, son of Herparnias.’ In particular, the pillars and elaborate carvings reminiscent of ancient Greek temples are impressive. You can walk from downtown Fethiye, and the panorama of the city and the sea as you climb the hill is truly beautiful. Feel the breath of ancient times in this place where history and nature come together. Personally, I recommend the surrounding alleys because they are
really pretty and great for taking pictures!
