Manavgat, Turkey
Altınkaya
N/A
You need to be dedicated to go there, as it is a little bit in the middle of nowhere ;) but it is worth the trip - it is well preserved. Take the time and visit the place once on Turkish riviera :)

Interesting place, but I prefer rafting
The ancient city of Selge is located in the current village of Altinkaya. The amphitheatre is definetly the best preserved structure of the ancient city, but you can see traces of the ancient city in the area surrounding and within Altinkaya. We were there as part of a guided tour, so it was not the main stop on our trip. The villagers will approach you with items to sell. I talked a little bit with an older woman named Emina, she was very kind, told me some history about the theatre and the village. I bought a knitted hat and a pair of socks from her which liked. After we had explored the theatre and taken in the views we got served a local tea made of Sage and Oregano, that tea was really good! All in all it is was a nice area, and I wish we had mord time to explore a little bit longer.
Local turkish experience with outstanding views of the Torous mountains.
Nice view. Needs a lot of betterment to suit more visitors.
Terrific place with Turkish village houses built atop Roman ruins. There's a school for 4 grades, no hospital, no work, no water, no nothing, just fantastic views. The only chance for locals to earn something is to sell their handmade stuff to tourists, so a flock of ladies runs after you. They are sweet ladies, they provide explanations and make sure you don't break your neck as you climb the theater. I bought very nice woven necklaces for ten liras a piece, 3-4 times cheaper than similar stuff in Cappadocia.
Nice setting, solid piece of antic era history, amphitheater must have been amazing, but in poor condition now, very rural atmosphere, nice view, poor locals trying to sell stuff might be anoing for some, but we gave them some money to help out a bit, seems like a poor village. Accesible from resorts on the beach and offers different world compared to 5* temples of overeating. Nice setting and country around.
