Aphrodisias Aphrodisias is one of Turkey's least visited archeological sites. The main reason for this is that it's a bit off the beaten track, some 100 km inland form most other sites. Although Afrodisias was already an importnat place in neolithic times, most of monuments date from Roman times: a theatre, a double agora, baths of Hardian a bishops palace, a staidum and an odeon. On the site is a small museum which has some very nice sculptures. If you don't have your own means of transport the way to get here is via Nazili and then take a Dolmus to Geyre, 600 meters from Aphrodisias on the main road.
