Its story

Termessos is built on a natural platform on the slope of Güllük Dağı (ancient Solymos), northwest of Antalya on the Korkuteli road. It is considered one of Turkey's best-preserved ancient cities. Its steep setting and unspoiled nature set it apart from other ancient cities; its theater, set against the mountain, is famous for its views. The city lies within Güllük Dağı-Termessos National Park, established in 1970.
