Its story
Karura is an ancient settlement just south of the Büyük Menderes River, on the northeastern border of Caria. Strabo mentions the city as the boundary point between Phrygia and Caria and refers to its hot springs. The region's geothermal character is reflected today in the name and economy of Buharkent. Visible remains are very limited.
