Lycian Rock Tombs / Fethiye ( Thelmessos ) Carved into the side of a Turkish mountain are what look to be the entrances to countless temples, but are in fact the ornate facade of ancient Lycian tombs. The Lycians believed that their dead were carried to the afterlife by magic winged creatures and thus they placed their honored dead in geographically high places such as the cliffside. Dating back to the 4th century, many of the numerous entryways are adorned with tall Romanesque columns and intricate reliefs, a bit duller from centuries of weathering. The older tombs are often no more than unremarked holes dug into the rock. Despite the external grandeur, the interior of the tombs are spare chambers cut into the rock with a simple monolith inside to display the body and the rooms are otherwise empty from hundreds of years worth of looting.
Spooky Lycian Rock Tombs - Fethiye Turkey 2018 Travel Vlog
I left Kas and took a bus to Fethiye Turkey, my first stop was at the ancient Amyntas Rock tombs, used by the Lycians to store dead bodies, I then walked down the umbrella street, has a casual stroll to the beach where I saw a magnificent sunset, then taking a quick peak at the rock tombs again at night to see them lit up, looking ever more spookier.
