Fethiye

Day 9 - I would describe Fethiye as an affordable resort of Turkey; not as expensive as Bodrum and very beautiful. An earthquake in 1958 leveled the village but despite that it is a very relaxed place.
Our B & B is another great surprise with beautiful views from the balcony. The natural harbour is perfect for protecting it from storms with many outer islands.
The local Tuesday Market was huge and full of "Turkish Delights".
Carved into the rock face behind the town is the Tomb of Amyntas ( 350 B.C.)
