One of the seven wonders of the world. The tomb of king Mausole is the symbol of the city. With its 46 m height, it was out of the ordinary: its rectangular base supported 36 Ionic columns surmounted by a roof in the shape of a pyramid and it was decorated with statues of Mausole and Artemisia on a quadriga. After its destruction by an earthquake and its plundering by the knights, there is not much left of this marvel of antiquity. Archaeological excavations have brought its foundations to light. The models still help to get an idea.

Ne vaut pas le détour, sauf pour les passionnés d'archéologie.
Il s'agit certes d'une 7 merveilles du monde antique mais dont il ne reste presque plus rien sauf la base en pierre et quelques vestiges.
Une maquette donne une idée du mausolée original
