Theangela

Having been founded by the King Mausolos 2. to settle the people of Syangela in, the ancient city of Thaengela is located on the hill 1.5 km above the village of Etrim in the vicinity of the Village of Pınarlıbelen on the Mumcular-Bodrum road. The route from the village up to the hill is quite steep and hiking takes time to reach it. It is worth seeing the ruins on the hill for those who are interested in archaeology. But if you want to hike for sports, on condition that the weather is not hot and you have time, such exploration might be interesting to see. The remains of the walls and towers are catching the attention like the ones in other Lelegian cities among the remains from the settlement, survived to the present time. Moreover, you shall find remains from a structure similar like Stadion, monumental tombs, public structures, settlement-structures, wells and cisterns in the ancient city, which carries the traces of the Hellenistic Civilization.
