The ancient city of the 1st century BC. where excursions are not taken. Excavations are underway on the territory. There are many well-preserved fragments of buildings, a stone staircase from the gate to the top has been preserved, there are remains of mosaics. Great views, beautiful nature. Large lizards and turtles can be found among the ruins. Someone wrote that there are snakes, but they haven't seen one in 3 hours. A very colorful, beautiful and unforgettable place. You can see everything and climb everywhere. There are many buildings in the forest that cannot be approached. The city stands on a mountain at an altitude of 400 meters from the sea. You can take a taxi to the very entrance along a steep narrow serpentine. We went down to our Utopia World hotel from the other side of the mountain, also along a serpentine path through the forest and banana plantations. The road is very beautiful, but walking up there is stressful. The descent took 40 minutes.

It's a great place. Excavations are still underway. Admission is free. It won't be very easy on foot, we were on a scooter
The views are wonderful, the aura of the place came to me, as if in the scenery from the past and without museum splendor and there are no tourists, like in Ephesus. We were at dawn from 6 to 8 in July and the heat didn't bother us yet, but the awesome views should be at sunset. There is a place for shade, a zen fishing picnic is great here)

Close to Mahmutlar, easy to reach by car. Beautiful views of Alanya, there are practically no tourists, since the organization of tours here is not on stream. They look like ordinary, unremarkable ruins, of which there are hundreds even in Turkey itself. The most unusual artifact can be called the "street of columns": the quality of processing of massive stone blocks is impressive, if we take into account the time when it was created. An ideal place for independent travel by car.
