Phaselis by Nihal Tüner Önen

Phaselis, Ancient city of Lycian Civilization by Nihal Tüner Önen (ISBN 978-975-17-3775-5) is a hard-cover, pocket-size guide to the site of Phaselis.

The format allows the visitor to carry this booklet in his pocket or backpack, and the bookmarker helps to keep track of your whereabouts.

After a short geographical overview and the historical background, the guide treats the different parts of Phaselis and its main buildings. The booklet is richly illustrated with beautiful color photographs, which truly reflect the unique atmosphere that reigns among these impressive ruins.

It should be said, however, that the English text is not always very clear and understandable but with some effort, we can overcome that flaw.

All in all, it is a recommendable guide for those who truly wish to understand the layout of this ancient city.
