What really distinguishes
this walk is it`s intimate, almost careless relationship with history. Lycia,
in particular enjoyed a period os ascendancy and unique culture before falling
into the hands of Alexander the Great`s successors and then the Romans.
Later, Arabs, Crusaders and Genoese established themselves.
Traces of all these
hands are visible still, and nowhere more so than along this path, their romance
and charm enhanced by the old stones lying naturally among the scrub and goat
pastures.
Tombs just out of mule tilled fields, sections of columns are stacked in the
hedges.
