The rocky outcrop where the acropolis used to be is dominated by an Ottoman fortress, the 19th century refuge of Ali the Bloodthirsty. Steep paths lead to the rock-sided tombs. The beautifully carved three-door pediment of Bellerophon is reminiscent of a temple. A lion and a leopard are guarding the entrance. The path to the citadel is lined with tombs and sarcophagi. Below, the stadium and remains of ramparts, an aqueduct, a three-arched building and baths.

Ce site méconnu à une heure de Patara ou de Fethiye gagne à être plus connu. La route qui y mène est magnifique et c'est d'assez loin que l'on voit apparaître l'acropole de Tlos, transformé en une sorte de fort par les Ottomans. De là-haut, la vue sur la vallée jusqu'à Pinara est magnifique. La falaise est creusée de nombreuses tombes rupestres qui font un ensemble saisissant et très photogénique. Mais à Tlos, on trouve aussi tout ce qui fait une cité antique gréco-romaine : un théâtre (peu restauré), un stade magnifique, des thermes impressionnants ainsi que quelques bâtiments paléo-chrétiens...Une belle visite dans un cadre majestueux (entrée : 5 livres turques).
