Myra Turkey

Myra is an ancient Lycian city and is located in the fertile land of the city of Kale in Antalya. Although it was a Lycian metropolis in the early days of Christianity, the remains of antiquity were destroyed except for the great theater.

Myra is home to impressive rock tombs that correspond to her name and mean “the place of the great mother goddess”. Santa’s Church is another attraction. It is known that Myra and Limyra have strong trade exchanges with maritime affairs.
