There are some places that concretely display all the grandeur of the history. They are not hypothetical history, but concrete proofs of it. |

You will feel like your spirit is crushed under the grandeur of the history when you lay eyes on the king graves located in Dalyan. |
|
These are timeless king graves that survived the test of time since thousands of years, and carry the mysteries of the past into the future. You imagine that the stones start talking to you when you see the king graves. These huge rocks are carved with an incredibly fine style. Formed by carving the rocky mountain that rise at an 80 degrees angle from the sea at some spots, the graves push the boundaries of the mind |

According to the archeologists, these graves are a sign of the wealth and power of the antique Kaunos city. Today most of them are still 7-8 meters long up to their peaks. |
|
Carved in Ion temples style, the rock graves have three stone rows inside lined up next to each other to place the dead bodies on. The Ion columns that embellish the front façade of the monument graves are damaged. The carved lions that are face to face on only one of the pediments are quite impressive. |
