Attractions

The Temple of Apollo is the main historical attraction for Didim and Altinkum, but there are many other historic and natural attractions within striking distance, including the ruins of Miletos and Priene.

Less than two hours away is Ephesus, Turkey's primary tourist attraction and one of the most remarkable examples of ancient civilisation. A trip taking in Ephesus, the Virgin Mary's house, and the local town of Selcuk and its castle makes for an ideal day out.

A little further afield (about three and a half hours drive) is Pamukkale - renown for its calcium deposits embedded in the side of the hillside - a snowy scene if ever there was one!

Bafa Lake, Akkoy village are close by... and there is no end to the places, such as, Euromos, Iasows, Hilkarnassos, Labranda, and Mylasa, to visit using Altinkum as your base
