In my mind September is the best time to visit Turkey. It is not as hot as in summer anymore, but the weather is fine and Mediterranean Sea is still warm.
Among of the long list of Turkey attractions Simena village (or Kaleköy) located in Demre district of the Antalya Province on the Mediterranean coast takes a special place.
This village has united present and past,
old Byzantine castle and ...
ruins, ...
underwater streets and beautiful landscapes.
I reached Simena by water and being honest may tell that through the glass bottom of the ship it is not possible to see underwater streets clearly. To observe them aqualung is absolutely needed. At the same time perfect landscapes are available without any special equipment.
There are funny moments too. For instance I accidentally photographed a remarkable goat.
Up to now I cannot understand how it clung to the rocks.
And of course romantic ships did not leave indifferent anyone of present!
Antalya is great city for summer holiday. You should also visit Kas :)
Many thanks for your comment and advice. Probably I will have a chance :D
Sehr schöne Bilder einer friedlichen Landschaft. Das Mittelmeer ist einfach zu jeder Zeit herrlich anzusehen.......
Fully agree with you! Thank you very much for your comment :D
welcome.....
Marvelous shots and all have that one wonderful feel about the place. The ruins show, how brave and determined the people were then, cutting rocks and building castles without modern day precision tools. Moreover that Brave Goat! Amazing!. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you very much for your deep comment and kind words! I very appreciate it :D
I have to admit, it took me a long time to find the goat in the first goat picture...
That's what I thought and therefore increased the picture. Thank you very much for your attention to my blog :D
Very well taken, you bring out the colours very well.
Thank you very much for your pleasant reply!
Nice photos! I have been told that Turkey has some of the most hospitable people in the world. Is that true?
Thank you very much for your kind reply! As for me that is true. They are very entrepreneurial too. This is perfect combination for comfortable and impressive vacation. You should check this personally :D
