We arrived by car in the late afternoon. The place is beautiful and historical. Tickets at the box office cost 700 lira (December 2024), accept cards and euros, change euros to lira. The toilet is 100 meters from the entrance (free). The territory itself is huge, excavations and restoration work are underway there. All descriptions are in English and Turkish. The road down to the sea is actually unpaved. The feeling that there are not enough signs where to go and what to see. It's better to take a guided tour. Rare historical artifacts at the very entrance to the sea (there is also a ticket office there). I recommend you to visit.

Absolutely ordinary antique ruins, just hyped. Admission is 1000 rubles per person (I consider it expensive, considering that there are plenty of such ruins for free). Phaselis is more interesting and more expensive for the same money. A huge bunch of tourists. Half of it has not been excavated yet and there is no access to many parts of the city. There's no atmosphere because of the crowds. The Turks tried to refine and make something like a park, but it has not worked out yet, even the benches for recreation are located exclusively in the scorching sun, although there are large trees nearby) I advise you to go to the less popular ruins yourself if you want to touch the history-there are many such places in Turkey, they are often better, there are no people at all and for free. And the views are much more beautiful.
