Ancient City of Lamos (Alanda)

Lamos, also known as Alanda, is an ancient city within Gazipasa. No excavations are currently underway and no new historical sites have appeared, but the natural beauty is captivating: you stand on top of a mountain, seemingly above everything else, with the feeling that the whole world is at your feet. Notably, most local residents, including the district head, visited here for the first time during a municipally organized hike. The whole event took 6 hours, though time seemed to fly.

How to get there

By car 15–20 minutes from the center, then a hike to the summit on foot.
