A 2,5 km. The importance of Myra's city had made it possible for Trajan to set up this port, but it was Hadrian that realized this book. The city is so prosperous that, to protect itself, it closes its port through a chain. Brutus breaks it (st century BC) to be able to take the toll that the city denies it.At the entrance, busts of Hadrian and his wife Sabine, fountain and agora and huge granarium, seed warehouse vital to the region's economy at the time.Sandy beach, restaurants and taxis for Uçağız. Possibility of boat excursions.Between the centre and Çayağzı, there is a fountain that soulage the problems of gastritis, dysentery, parasitose and kidney calculations when it is absorbed in a fasting! Another, on the right of the road, would benefit those who suffer from eczema, mushrooms and sunburn.From Demre to Uçağız, the motorized traveller has the choice between two routes. The first one is a 12 km road that takes left, 5 km after the exit of Demre (sign). The second is the main, broad and well designed road, so faster. Turn right at 23 km towards Kyenai (Cyaneae).Walk 2 km to the village of Yavu (or Villazon according to the versions) and take 45 minutes to access the site on steep cliffs above the village. People propose to guide, they can know some hidden treasures…Cyaneae, means in Greek dark blue, but we don't know very much about this important city, it seems, which is connected to the port of Theimiusa by a road. In Byzantine times, it is the seat of a diocese. It was abandoned in the th century. This excursion allows you to admire Roman sarcophagi and lycians of great interest.At the top of the hill is the acropolis. Between this and the theatre is the largest necropolis in the Lycian Valley. Among other buildings, you can distinguish from thermal baths, a library and tanks. Don't miss the grandiose panorama that you can admire from the top of the theatre: Apollonia, Trysa and all islands and peninsula of Kekova Bay.
