5. Knidos

An ancient city in a beautiful place. Although from afar it seems pretty small but since you're in the site you realize how actually big for that time the city was. There's not much left of it but even the stones that still remain give an impression how well designed Knidos was. The harbour is something amazing. They used the natural bays and improved the safety for ships with walls both sides, west and east. There's also a lighthouse at the point, it's a bit of a walk but worthy every step. Gorgeous views from the path and from the hill.

If you're in Cesme, the castle is well worth a quick visit. It breathes history, just like many other monuments in Turkey. Be prepared to climb steps and enjoy the view from the top.
