Overview
The charming resort town of Bodrum rises above the remnants of ancient, mighty Halikarnassos. Dominating the landscape, Bodrum’s Castle of St. Peter stands as an essential highlight, housing the unexpected treasure of the Museum of Underwater Archaeology – a remarkable find for a coastal town. A mere 15-minute harborfront stroll from the castle reveals the atmospheric ruins of what was once the magnificent Mausoleum, counted among the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. The surviving ancient walls, historic Myndos Gate, and remarkably preserved Ancient Theater complete this vivid tapestry of antiquity.
