Visiting Olympos Ancient City
A Lycian harbour city tucked into a river valley — riverside ruins, pomegranate trees and Roman tombs. Olympos is a Lycian port-city at the foot of Mount Olympos (Tahtalı, 2,366 m). The ruins line a small river that flows into a protected pebble cove — pomegranate trees grow between the wall remnants, and Roman sarcophagi sit half-submerged in spring run-off.…
Opening hours: Daily 09:00–19:00 summer, 09:00–17:00 winter. · Entry: €4 adult · Museum Pass valid. · April–June and September–October. Avoid weekends in summer — Antalya day-trippers fill the riverbank.
★ Riverside walking path — Cool, shaded path through the ruins along the freshwater stream — popular with families on hot days.
★ Roman sarcophagi — Carved tombs partly submerged at the river's edge — winter rains cover them, summer drought reveals inscriptions.
★ Theatre + agora — Small Lycian theatre on the south bank — agora and bath complex on the north.
💡 Walking shoes essential: The river path is sandy + rocky — flip-flops fail.
