It lies 30km to the North West of Antalya. It was founded on a natural platform on top og Gulluk Dagi soaring to a height of 1,665 meters from among the surrounding travertine mountains of Antalya which average only 200 meters above sea level.

- Termessos has many temples and very large cemeteries. The variety and decorations of his tombs are very rich. The tomb of Alketas (319 BC), one of the important commanders of Alexander the Great period, and others are also important in terms of shedding light on the history of the city. Next to the monumental tombs, the shield-motif sarcophagus depicting many of their warriors occupies a large area in the cemetery area. The most interesting work of Termessos in the Antalya Museum is the "Dog Tomb" exhibited in the "Hall of Tombs". The poetic inscription written by the owner of the dog Stefanos is of special importance as it is unique.
