The Lycian Tombs are the main attraction of the resort. The tombs date back to the 4th century BC. They are a very special kind of tomb art – massive stone sculptures of original shape.

The most famous is the tomb of Amyntas, which is a platform with a rock-cut portico and two Ionic columns. It can be reached by steps. On the wall of the tomb is carved inscription in Greek "Amyntas, son of Hermagios".

Another tomb has a rather unusual design. Rectangular in plan, with wooden supports, it has a Gothic-style lid and arches on both sides. The lid is decorated with reliefs depicting warfare, which are believed to tell the story of the life of the person buried in this tomb.
