 Just 120 km from Antalya, in the small town of Demre, there are two main attractions, symbols of tourist Antalya - the Church of St. Nicholas (11th century) and the Lycian rock tombs in Myra (5th century BC). It is hard to believe, but it was in the Antalya region that St. Nicholas was born, lived and served as an archbishop. It was here that many legends were born about St. Nicholas as a protector of children and sailors and the tradition of giving gifts on Christmas Eve. The Church of St. Nicholas, in which the bishop himself served, was built in the 4th century as a small chapel. At different periods (from the 6th century to the 19th century), the church was rebuilt 4 (four) times - frescoes, floor mosaics, a courtyard, a monastery, a dome and a bell tower appeared. It is believed that Saint Nicholas was buried in this church and remained there until 1087, until Italian merchants took the saint's relics to Bari (Italy). The Lycian tombs in Myra are the largest complex of rock burials of ancient Lycia in the territory of Antalya, dating back to the period of the Greco-Persian Wars. Externally, the tombs look like houses with triangular roofs, a log ceiling and doors that slide aside. Also on the excursion we will walk through the Greco-Roman theater and examine a small Christian chapel of the 6th century, discovered in 2012 in Demre in the yard of a local resident. You will learn stories and legends about these places directly on the excursion, and you will also be able to personally touch the sarcophagus in which, according to one legend, Saint Nicholas was buried.
