Dalyan is a small town located in the Mugla province of Turkey, known for its stunning natural beauty and rich cultural heritage. One of the most fascinating historical sites in Dalyan is the Ancient Rock Tombs, which are located on the cliffs overlooking the town.
The Ancient Rock Tombs are a series of elaborate burial chambers carved into the rock face, dating back to the 4th century BC. These tombs were built by the Lycian people, an ancient civilization that inhabited the region during the Hellenistic period.
The tombs are carved into the cliffs at various heights, with the highest ones reaching up to 40 meters above the ground. Each tomb is decorated with intricate carvings and reliefs, depicting scenes from Lycian mythology and daily life.
One of the most impressive tombs is the Harpy Tomb, which features a frieze of winged creatures known as harpies. Another notable tomb is the Lion Tomb, which is adorned with a relief of a lion attacking a bull.
Visitors to the Ancient Rock Tombs can take a boat tour along the Dalyan River to get a closer look at the tombs. The boat tour also includes a visit to the nearby ruins of the ancient city of Kaunos, which was once a major trading center in the region.
Overall, the Ancient Rock Tombs are a fascinating glimpse into the rich history and culture of the Lycian people, and a must-see attraction for anyone visiting Dalyan.
