This is FETHIYE, TURKEY 🇹🇷 Safe? Beautiful? Must Visit? What to do in the city. Travel Guide.

Welcome to Fethiye, Turkey. This is our first week in Turkey, starting a brand new series that takes us to various locations in Turkey (stay tuned!).

We’re starting off our time in Turkey in the city of Fethiye, which is a beach town in the Southwest of the country.

Because we were staying in the Calis Beach area of Fethiye, we start the day there. Here you’ll find a long beach, a pedestrian only walking area and loads of restaurants. Because it’s early in the day we grab some breakfast, a traditional Turkish breakfast dish called menemen - which includes eggs, tomato, green peppers, and various spices.

Later we grab a water taxi to make our way to the main part of the town, downtown and Old Town Fethiye. Once we land we pretty much immediately make our way up a big hill to some ancient ruins. These are called Lycian Rock Tombs and are carved into the side of hills. The main one is the Tomb of Amyntas.

Later we head back down into the Old Town to check out the main market which includes both a fish market and a fruit/vegetable market.

After this we head to into the main part of the Old Town to explore the streets and bazaars (including a carpet bazaar).

Lastly, we go back to Calis Beach to catch the sunset - it’s west facing and happens to be an amazing place to watch the sunset! A perfect way to end a great day!

ABOUT FETHIYE
Fethiye is a port city, and district, on Turkey's southwestern Turquoise Coast. It's known for its natural harbor, blue waters and numerous rock tombs including the 4th-century B.C. Tomb of Amyntas, carved into a bluff overlooking the city. Near-shore islands are popular for day trips by boat. In the south, the beach at Ölüdeniz is sheltered by a lagoon, and Butterfly Valley is a designated nature reserve.

ABOUT TURKEY
Turkey is a nation straddling eastern Europe and western Asia with cultural connections to ancient Greek, Persian, Roman, Byzantine and Ottoman empires. Cosmopolitan Istanbul, on the Bosphorus Strait, is home to the iconic Hagia Sophia, with its soaring dome and Christian mosaics, the massive 17th-century Blue Mosque and the circa-1460 Topkapı Palace, former home of sultans. Ankara is Turkey’s modern capital.
