Ancient Hallicanassus, city of the great Mausoleum, one the seven wonders of antiquity, the famous castel and amphtheatre, is today modern Bodrum, a relaxing  a party town with a magnificent mountain surrounding, that is full of great markets and home to stunning sunsets.

Bodrum is the place where the famous Blue Voyages starts and  ends  in Antalya. We call it  Mavi Yolculuk that I had made in 1968. The trip usually takes  15-20 days and you will see lots of historical  sites/places like;  Gökova Bay, Knidos, Datça,  Marmaris,  Dalyan (Chaunos), Fethiye (ÿlü Deniz, Turkish Dead Sea),  Kaſ, Kalkan, Kekova, Demre  (Birth Place of Santa Clous), Finike, Olympus, Phaselis,  Kemer and Antalya.. This is the best part of Turkey.  In Bodrum there are  three big marinas and lots of hotels and an airport nearby.
