Dalyan is a small town located on the southwest coast of Turkey, known for its beautiful natural scenery and historical landmarks. One of the most notable historical sites in Dalyan is the King's Tombs, also known as the Lycian Tombs. These tombs date back to the 4th century BC and were built for the rulers of the ancient Lycian city of Kaunos. The tombs are carved into the cliffs overlooking the Dalyan River, and are accessible only by boat. There are six tombs in total, with the most impressive being the Harpy Tomb, which is decorated with intricate reliefs of winged female figures. The tombs are a testament to the architectural and artistic achievements of the ancient Lycians and are an important part of Turkey's cultural heritage.
