1. Phaselis Ancient City: The Three-Harbour Trading City
Located approximately 15 kilometres from Kemer, Phaselis is one of the important port cities of the Lycian civilisation. Believed to have been founded by the Rhodians in the 7th century BC, this city became one of the most important trade centres of the Mediterranean thanks to its location. The city is notable for having three separate ports: the North Harbour, the War Harbour and the South Harbour. Thanks to these harbours, intensive trade relations were established with Egypt, Phoenicia, Greece and Rome.
One of the most impressive structures in Phaselis is the main street from the Roman period. This 24-metre-wide street stretches from the theatre to the agora, from the baths to the aqueducts.

Traces of Roman and Byzantine architecture can be seen throughout the city. It is equally impressive to see how nature has adapted to the city: the blue of the Mediterranean Sea can be seen through the ancient stones, shaded by pine forests.
