Today, it is located in the southern part of the district and many legends about its construction are still circulating among the people of the district.

When you climb the steps, you will also see the endless view of Fethiye. The engravings on the tombs are as fascinating as their locations.

· Kayaköy: It is an abandoned village among pine, pomegranate and fig trees. The village, which was established centuries ago as a Greek settlement, was evacuated at the beginning of the 20th century. Turks from Thrace were settled in the population exchange in 1922, and then the village was left empty when they left. The stone houses were built in a way that they would not shade each other. You can watch the shades of blue and green here while walking in nature.
