In the land of the Lycians, approximately 50 km from Dalaman airport, you will find the small harbor town of Fethiye, formerly known as Telmesos. Many of the ancient sites still exist.
 
Surrounded by subtropical vegetation, mountains and sea, Fethiye offers many opportunities for day trips and water sports for the more active holidaymaker.
 
The TRUVA Hotel is located 5 km north of Fethiye, only 100 m from the Çalış Beach where sun shades and sun rests are available for a small fee. Our quiet hotel is surrounded by gardens.
 

The most famous sites are the lagoon and the beach of Ölü Deniz ("Silent Ocean") which reflect the beauty of the landscape.
 
Fethiye is the ideal destination for visitors who seek the interesting and unusual.

 
In the centre of Fethiye tradition and tourism blend harmoniously. There are many restaurants, shops, artistic crafts and a colorful market.

Unlike most other countries on the Mediterranean, Turkey is largely unspoiled by tourism.
 
It is an exotic world which quickly feels like home.
 
Turkey is oriental and yet it is different. It is the only Islamic country in which state and religion are separated.

Oriental magic – a combination of teeming bazaars and Islamic composure; add the colorful bustle of modern life to the background of exotic ruins, fortresses and mosques and the eventful history of the country. Turkey offers unique variety and forms a bridge between Europe and Asia.

Turkey's ...
 
... varied landscapes offer something for every taste: for a beach holiday, clean water, solitary bays and the finest beaches on the Mediterranean (the bathing season lasts from April until October); for the hiker, endless mountain ranges, sweeping canyons, peaceful forests, vast mountain lakes and remote villages.

The locals' hospitality, their openness and friendliness towards guests, their ease, their pride and spontaneity will make this an unforgettable holiday experience.
 
Turkey is a country waiting to be discovered.

Its charm lies in its contradictions. It is civilized yet adventurous and its sheer size ensures that there will always be something new to discover.
 
It is impossible to explore the entire country or even only the most important sites and landscapes in only one trip.
