Ancient Dalyan Tombs Carved in Rock Cliffs
Just a short day trip from Marmaris lie the ancient rock tombs of Lycian Kings in Dalyan. The drive there is a little more than an hour by motorcycle through pine forests on great quality roads. The town, not much in and of itself, seems to be geared around tourism.[…]
The Beautiful Port Town of Marmaris Turkey
