Its story

Yarışlı Lake is a saline wetland in Yeşilova district and an important habitat for birds. Flocks of flamingos in particular dot the lake with pink as they feed in the shallow water. There are birdwatching terraces on the shore and a small islet in the lake. On the peninsula on the east shore are traces of the Tymbrianassos settlement dating to the 6th century BC.
