Dalyan Holiday

The Kaunos Tombs

Rock Tombs at Night

The Rock Tombs overlooking Dalyan were built to house the dead Kings from the ancient City of Kaunos and offer an impressive sight that inspires all that see them.  During your holiday you will see them almost every day and at each glance you'll wonder at just how the ancient people of Kaunos carved such features with just the most basic of tools.  When illuminated at night the splendour is amplified with the orange glow.

The tombs were a symbol or wealth and power to the people of Kaunos and although the test of time has eroded some of the features you can still see this message of sophistication.
