Euromos is immediately off the main road, marked only by a small brown sign, but is definitely worth a visit. We spent about an hour and a half onsite, and entered using our Museum Pass - Aegean. The entrance guard was friendly, and there were clean, newly-built toilet facilities. The Temple of Zeus Lepsinos is impressive for having so many upright pillars, though it is fenced off so you cannot walk inside it (probably sensible!). There is a level cobbled path to the Temple so this area at least has easy accessibility. Follow the signs up over the hill to the City Walls (steps so limited accessibility) to enter inside the city and see the rest of the ruins. The theatre is partly excavated, with several shafts sunk to the historical ground level, and only the upper tiers of the theatre fully exposed. it was particularly interesting to see how the earth has protected the parts of the theatre that were covered. As usual, the theatre had a lovely view out over the valley below, though there was some road noise.

Behramkale is a upper town of Assos. At the top of the hill, you can see the remnants of the ancient city such as the castle, the Temple of Athena in the open air museum. In addition to those, you can also see the mosque built in the Ottoman Era. Recently, Behramkale is a very cozy village with its tea gardens, cafés, souvenir shops, and authentic restaurants. After visiting the ancient town, it is a joy to walk on the street and make some shopping. Especially in summer seasons, it is also nice to drink cold blackberry juice that you can find almost every corner in Behramkale.

It's a clock (four to be precise) on a tower in a small square. But a nice place to sit, eat or drink. Not really something to review.

This park and adjoining restaurant contain an old watermill and stream where you can play with the fish, then select the one you want cooked for dinner.
Reviewed By BoRaXiN72 - Istanbul, Turkey
This place is surronded by natural spring water cold as ice. Waterfalls, swimming polls etc. The bar is surrounded by a manmade canal in which trout fish swim and you can pet them. There are nice spots up the trees where you can eat, drink or rest or even sleep.The water is so cold in the swimmimng pool that you get one beer free in you can stay in for a minute.
