Along the coasts of Türkiye 2010

[the venturer]

It was getting afternoon and I need to reach Fethiye-Ölüdeniz (Dead Sea)
another spot I wanted to see, the Lycian Region.

Glad to have dotted two campspots. One full and moved to the next one.
The latter is not for tents, but vehicles. Not to offend me, they accepted me. But I was too tired to erect my tent. Sleeping just on the coast wasn't a bad idea. But before that, shower and food.
Alper, the owner of this hotel http://www.gofethiye.com/ClubHotelMe...udeniz-257.htm and Greenpark Private Beach and Restaurant as well (this where I stayed) took me to Hisarönü ( little England) for a breather. Lots of bars and loud music on each corner, Brits here and there... I was dead tired but all that jazz kept me awake. Came back to nest at 2 in the morning. Bright stars and full moon up in the sky were waiting for me. With my feet in the Dead Sea Lagoon, I fell asleep. What else would one want?

''The best route is the route that you know''. And I didn't listen to my GPS, but my paper map.To cut it short, climbed up and up.

Crossing bridges

Finally I was able to make my way back to the coast back again.

Up in the mountains, this region is very famous with pure natural pine honey. If you ever make your way to here, just try it. You'll see for yourselves that it really works

Ohhhh, at last. This is the Dead Sea.

Really crowded, ain't it?

Before a place to stay overnight, I wanted to see what was around.
Rode up to the mountains again to see more...

Milestones



Very interesting. Considering how the Romans went through emperors in such short periods, these milestones must have been reused quite a few times indeed!
