A small Lycian city near the village of Ören, in the source area of the Eşen River.
Its story
Araxa lies around the present-day village of Ören, near the source of the ancient Xanthos (Eşen) River. Ancient writers mention the city near Sidyma. Inscriptions found here provide information about the city's relations with its neighbors and its place within the Lycian League. The remains are scattered and limited; they can be visited together with the valley's quiet rural landscape.
