Mount Yamanlar, Mountain summit in Izmir Province, Turkey
Mount Yamanlar rises to an elevation of 1,076 meters in western Turkey, offering clear views across the Gulf of Izmir and surrounding landscapes.
The mountain contains remnants of ancient settlements, including a tomb dating from 1440 BC during the reign of Tantalus, the first recorded ruler of this region.
The name Yamanlar derives from a 13th-century monastery constructed under the direction of John III Doukas Vatatzes, reflecting the area's religious significance.
A steep road leads to the summit where visitors find bungalows, hiking paths, and observation points located 20 kilometers from central Karşıyaka district.
Near the peak, visitors discover Karagöl, a crater lake whose dark waters create a natural mirror effect against the mountain's volcanic terrain.
