Walk up hilly Uzun Çarşı Sokak, the Roman-era road that locals call Slippery Street, to
reach the King's Tomb Offline map Google map . This 4th-century BC Lycian sarcophagus
is mounted on a high base with two lions' heads on the lid.
Antiphellos was a small settlement and the port for Phellos, the larger Lycian town fur-
ther north in the hills. The small Hellenistic theatre could seat some 4000 spectators and
is in good condition. You can also walk to the rock tombs cut into the sheer cliffs above
town, which are illuminated at night. The walk is strenuous so go at a cool time of day.
