Located in the Antalya Province of Anatolia, Turkey, this UNESCO World Heritage Site is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Asia Minor.

Visiting Xanthos is like stepping into history itself. This archaeological site offers a low angle view that highlights not only The Harpy Monument but also other landmarks scattered throughout its vast grounds. It's no wonder why tourists flock here; it truly is a travel destination worth exploring.
