Termessos, one of the most important ancient cities of Antalya, is located in the section called Milyas in the Pisidian region.

Termessos is one of the most important ancient sites of Antalya. The ancient city is located in the southwestern part of the Pisidian region of Milyas, in a forested area within the Termessos National Park of the same name.

It is known that the ancient city was built by the Solyms from the Luwier family, who are known as one of the ancient peoples of Anatolia. In 333, Alexander the Great besieged the city, but the Termessians put up strong resistance and defended their dwelling place.
