One of the best preserved ancient theatres, the Aspendos has a capacity of 15,000 people and is the region’s best preserved still-standing theatre which is still used today. Perge is an ancient city which was built in 1500 B.C. It is a cultural heritage worth seeing for its high tower, city gates and column-lined road. Another miracle of nature is the Kurþunlu (Leaded) Waterfall with its 100 or more bird varities and secret cave which is popular with visitors.
During the summer months in Belek, care must be taken against excess heat and humidity. The region is affected by the harsh characteristics of the Mediterranean climate, so old people and children in particular should stay out of the sun during the noon hours.
