Tomb of Amyntas
Amyntas Kaya Mezarları
A Lycian rock tomb carved into the cliffs above Fethiye, its temple-style façade dating from the 4th century BC, and a symbol of the city.
The Tomb of Amyntas is a Lycian tomb left by the ancient city of Telmessos. Its façade is carved as an Ionic temple portico, and the inscription reads “Amyntas, son of Harpamyas.” From the city, climb about 200 steps to reach the tomb, which overlooks Fethiye harbor and is best visited at sunset. Several smaller rock tombs are also cut into the surrounding cliffs and are lit at night. Admission is a small fee, and a visit takes about 45 minutes.
