Aspendos Theatre
The city's most famous remnant from the days of the Roman Empire is an exceptionally well preserved amphitheatre and is welcoming you when visiting Belek . Capable of sitting up to 20,000 spectators during its heyday, the amphitheatre is still used for its original purpose today, as concerts and recitals are still regularly held here.
Perge
Located a little less than 20 kilometres away from Belek you may find the remains of an ancient Roman town. Though the buildings have been repeatedly damaged by earthquakes, most of it is amazingly undamaged, including the baths and the stadium. Perge is also said to have been where St Peter preached one of his first sermons; you can find out more of Perge's interesting history from the tour guides available onsite. |
