An ancient Pisidian mountain city perched over 1,000 metres above sea level in the Taurus Mountains within Güllük Dağı National Park. In 333 BC, even Alexander the Great failed to conquer the fortress, famously calling it an eagle's nest. Today, atmospheric ruins lie intertwined with wild pine forest: a cliffside Hellenistic theatre suspended over sheer drops, an ancient agora, rock-hewn cisterns, and monumental sarcophagi.
Highlights
- Hellenistic theatre carved onto a dramatic mountain precipice
- The unyielding stronghold that repelled Alexander the Great
- Extensive mountain necropolis filled with ornate sarcophagi
