Cliffs located on the southern side of the town contain remarkably well-preserved cave tombs, built by the long-gone Lycian culture. Despite its profusion of ancient sites, Fethiye is a modern city with a cosmopolitan atmosphere. The city provides a good base for day trips into the surrounding countryside, where you can see even more Lycian relics. It features a lively nightlife scene and a variety of dining options, drawing big crowds from nearby resorts.
