Letoon
The religious sanctuary of the Lycian League, housing three side-by-side temples to Leto, Apollo and Artemis, and a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Letoon was the most important religious sanctuary in Lycia. Three temples stand side by side, dedicated to the goddess Leto and her children Apollo and Artemis, and the temple of Leto has been partly reconstructed. The trilingual stele unearthed here (in Lycian, Greek and Aramaic) was key to deciphering the Lycian language, and the original is held at the Fethiye Museum. There is also a Hellenistic theater. Admission is charged, and a visit takes about 1 hour.
