Antalya / Serik · Ancient cities and archaeological sites

Aspendos Ancient City

Look beyond the Roman theatre to the remains of the city behind it.

A closer look

Aspendos, in Serik district, is famous for its Roman theatre. The urban remains behind it and the waterworks show that the site extends beyond a single monument.

 

 Allow a close look at the theatre before extending your route into permitted areas. Returning to a viewpoint to compare details of the stage building can be more revealing than a quick circuit.
