The place caused delight from the views, ancient monuments, and nature around. I definitely recommend you to visit! You can get there by regular bus, by taxi, by your own transport, entry is paid. We took a bus from Chamyuva in 15 minutes, entrance is paid, 450 liras, walk for 25 minutes along the road, surrounded by coniferous forests and mountains!

A pleasant place to walk slowly, gaze into all corners, and then to the beach- the beach is sandy, the sea is clear. The place for the photo is great. There are disadvantages and not a few of them: 1. Well, the cleanliness leaves much to be desired, but this is a question for those who visit this location. 2. Paid entry is not cheap. 3. One cafe-the prices are exorbitant. 4. The locker room and toilet are not very clean, but the toilet is still cleaner than on Kaputash Beach. No, no + who knows how.... The beach is naturally wild- there are no umbrellas and sun beds. Maybe there's a free entrance somewhere.

History lovers will definitely like this place very much. It takes 15 minutes by minibus from the center of Kemer, and then you can walk from the checkpoint to the city itself, about the same amount. But this path will not seem tedious, because you will walk through the forest, with amazing air.

As always, you can take a regular TA08 city bus (150rubles) from the Kemer shopping area directly to the entrance to the park without an excursion. Since this is a landmark in the city administration, the entrance is ONLY for lira, change it in advance. (although it says that the entrance fee is 10€). The exchange rate is also different than in exchangers, take it with a margin. I got a 440TL input. The car is 30€. You can take a blanket, swimsuits, and food with you. You can swim and relax. To the left of the park are sharp rocks, where there is a bay with yachts and a sandy beach. Sightseeing tours: Work is underway now, and special equipment is being used. The Turks decided to complete and refine the ancient architecture🙈 The amphitheater has been preserved very well, parts of the Doric order columns, fragments of capitals of different styles. It's interesting, but because of the construction, you start to doubt the originality.

Entry by car is 10 euros or 500 lira per person (not from a car!). If you have people with disabilities with you, our certificates take into account, they do not charge this person. A beautiful ancient city surrounded by pines. There is access to 3 bays - in the farthest there is a sandy entrance to the sea and a space under the pines. With children, it is a great place to visit and swim. But, now, I can't let go of the feeling that a lot of this is a novelty. The ruins are quietly used by locals for picnics, there are many of them, they are not limited in which ruins to sit. We had a crane working in another place and installed completely new blocks on the central street of the ancient city. In general, the impression is ambiguous. But we are satisfied. And pitchforks, and swimming in the sea.

A super interesting place for history lovers. Far away, there is little information on the site about the buildings and the city itself. Only a small part of the city has been excavated. Some work is still being done slowly.

Take the corals. There are two beaches: south and north. The southern one is sandy and shallow, undeveloped. You can walk 20-30 meters along the shoal. It's a little dirty. The northern beach is rocky, very beautiful! Archaeological excavations are underway. An ancient city is being recreated. It's better to go in the late afternoon to swim and wait for the lights to turn on. It's a beautiful place!

A very beautiful place, there is a place to swim, an incredible sandy beach with pine trees. There are changing rooms and a toilet on the beach. The ruins and remains of the city themselves are impressive, you can't even get around them all at once. We will come a second time to see more :)

The most beautiful place that the Turks decided to "patch up"… The same story in Side((. But it is still possible to touch the real, historical heritage of antiquity. The Greek amphitheater has been preserved in good condition! A wonderful beach with crystal clear water! Just a delight! The only unpleasant phenomenon is the entrance fee of 30€ per car!

An excellent monument that has not yet been greatly "refined". Walking along the central street, which is perfectly preserved, is pure delight. The large amphitheater is in very good condition. If you live in Rixos Tekirova, walk. You won't regret it, great coves and views along the way, one of the fortresses is completely abandoned along the way. It's very interesting, but keep in mind that one hill will have to be overcome. My children and I, the youngest of whom is 9 years old, had fun.

A very cool authentic place. A really big ancient fortress on the mountain. Funicular ride. But there is also an entrance for cars. Unfortunately, there wasn't enough time to get around it because of the tour. But the view is gorgeous

A wonderful atmospheric place!! Magnificent bird's-eye view of the town of Phaselis, spread out on the peninsula below. In fact, I put this fortress on the map in 2010, but it is located at the top of the mountain on the Northern Hill above the city. The walls of the fortress are partially preserved in some places along the edge of the hill. The area of the fortress is about the same as the area of the city that can be viewed. You can enter the territory directly from the intersection with the highway, where the turn to Takhtaly is located. An ordinary city bus for 150 rubles from Kemer is asked to stop at the intersection, cross the road and dive into the passage in the "thorn". Near the highway 400 "beyond the thorn" I found the remains of the foundations of round towers. Inside the fortress there is a palace (marked on the map); a well; a diamond-shaped large pool from which water flowed into the aqueduct; megalithic ruins of the source of the aqueduct; a hidden exit - the secret gate of the fortress (gate). If you walk around the fortress, be very careful: there are a lot of prickly plants (so keep a pair of socks in stock to change clothes), look at your feet so as not to step on anyone, there are few paths here. Be careful, do not go close to the edge of the cliff, it is in the form of a balcony, IT CAN COLLAPSE! After a wonderful photo shoot, there is a quest: we are looking for a descent to the gate - the secret gate of the fortress. At the exit of the gate, there are photos on the stairs and at the giant caves and in them. Then - a careful descent in sneakers (no slippers or flip-flops!!) to the necropolis. On the rocks on the shore of the northern bay, we change or clean socks from thorns. After the photo at the ruins of the aqueduct, we enter the city along the main avenue... After walking around the city and sightseeing, we return along the road to the checkpoint, there is a bus stop, we are waiting for our bus, we just ask: to Kemer or Tekirova? On the way to the checkpoint, we admire the thickets of laurel, making sure that the bay leaf is REAL! At the checkpoint, we smile broadly at the guard and rejoice at the 10 euros saved.

The ancient city has pleased with its beauty! I was more interested in the archaeological excavations that are being conducted in this area. It is encouraging to see how the centuries-old city is being revived again, practically resurrecting rocks and earth from under the rocks. You can see how carefully the work is being carried out. However, it can not do without new technologies. Is it difficult to judge from the outside and decide in what form you want to see the city? - to excavate and leave everything as it is in its present form, or to rebuild the city in its original form (I hope there are drawings and maps for this, but this is not enough). The stones are ancient, but the masonry is fresh. In general, let everyone decide for themselves on this matter. Nevertheless, I felt a sense of touch and awe for the amazing creation of man, created before our era.

It's a very interesting place. The entrance is not expensive. Around $5 per person. You can spend 2 hours here if you walk right through all the ruins. For fans, ruins with a small number of signatures on the plaques are the very thing. It's a nice beach where some people swim (we didn't swim). It's very difficult with small children who need a stroller. Small and large stones create a serious problem for the usual "walking".

The fortress is still under excavation - this has its own atmosphere, since you can walk and discover what is hidden by nature, but also its disadvantage - it is not entirely clear how everything was arranged, where everything was.

There is no accuracy on the maps! There is no fortress in this area. They believed Yandex. We came, there's only the beach. There are a couple of vazwalin, but it's a joke to the chickens. The main attractions are much further away.

You can look at the Greek ruins. Not the best beaches for swimming. And the fare is 60 lire per person. Which is quite expensive for a place that is not equipped with normal toilets and is generally not equipped with either showers or changing rooms. There are also no tents with normal food and affordable prices. So if you are not an archaeologist who is interested in the history of Greek polis, it is unlikely that you will be particularly interested there.

There are no waves in the sea because it is a bay. Since it is affiliated to the Ministry of culture and tourism, the museum is entered by card. Overcrowding on weekends, car parking is problematic. It is nice to have a swimming experience in the ancient city.

It is a great advantage to be recognized less than other beaches. Museum card-controlled entrance is fine. But the last time I went, the bucket was uprooting some trees on the beach, straightening out the coastline. In order to expand the beach area, it is a disaster...
