Flowers everywhere
by Aurorae
Wherever you turn, you'll be facing lots and lots of beautiful flowers of all colours - mostly from hotel gardens and bars, but also on the streets and needless to say, along the beach everywhere. It gives such a cheerful atmosphere.
Landing
by Aurorae
If you fly in tandem, most probably you'll land on the beach, but solo pilots land exactly on the carpet on the pedestrian area. Landing is just a soft touch, like ballerina :)), only a few steps! You'll be asked to either lift your feet and then the pilot does all the job, or you'll touch the ground together. It's a very light touchdown!
Lycian Tombs
by mikelisaanna
Fethiye was formerly a Lycian city named Telmessus. The current buildings and streets of Fethiye have completely covered up the remains of that city, but a number of Lycian tombs have survived, which are carved into the cliffs above Fethiye. The tombs from the outside resemble the more famous carved facades of Petra in Jordan (but on a smaller scale). However, their interiors are very plain.
A group of the tombs are open to visitors. They are reachable by car or taxi, and there are a number of signs leading you up to them. Because of the tombs position in the cliffs above the town, they also provide you with a good view of Fethiye and the surrounding mountains and offshore islands.

Mosaic
by Aurorae
ALong the way, as you climb up to the top of the island, you'll run onto some of the mosaics. They are not protected or hidden from the weather conditions, but they are still there, quite well preserved. There is a fence and a sign not to step in.
Beautiful Fethiye...

"Fethiye'den..."
I was there... Searching for a pocket of cigarettes before going to disco pub... We were almost 40 crazy people in Fethiye.. Came by technical tour of university.. My eyes were like baloons under my make up.. Daylight was for history and at nite we never slept for 10 days...
We danced until early morning..
We had a very nice breakfast one of the tea gardens in the morning..
I missed you Fethiye... You were so beautiful... I'll come to find you again, I promise...
