Andriake Ancient City, Ancient port complex in Demre, Turkey.
The archaeological site spans across a coastal area with preserved Roman granaries, baths, churches, and a synagogue near the Mediterranean Sea.
The port city flourished during the Roman period, particularly under Emperor Hadrian who constructed substantial harbor facilities in 119 AD.
The Lycian Civilizations Museum within the site exhibits maritime artifacts, sculptures, and pottery that demonstrate the trade connections of this Mediterranean port.
The archaeological site maintains regular visiting hours from 8:00 AM to 7:00 PM during summer months, with guided tours available in multiple languages.
The ground composition contains millions of tiny seashells that accumulated over centuries due to the interaction between river and ocean waters.
