We pick you up from your hotel in Malatya in the morning and head towards Nemrut. We start the Nemrut tour. The first stop of our tour is the Karakus Tumulus, a monumental tomb belonging to the Commagene Royal family, named after the eagle statue standing on the south column. We continue our tour with a short break in Karakuş Tumulus with the Cendere Bridge. Cendere Bridge; It was built by the Roman Emperor Septimius Severus in the narrowest part of the Kahta Stream and is still used today; however, it is closed to vehicle traffic. After the wonderful photos we take on the Cendere bridge, we head towards Old Kahta Castle and Devil's Bridge, now known as Yeni Kale. After visiting Old Kahta Castle, we continue our tour with Arsemia Ruins, which was the summer capital of the Commagene Civilization. The city, located on the banks of the Kahta Stream, was founded at the beginning of the 3rd century BC by Arsames, the ancestor of the Commagenians. After the trip to Arsemia Ruins, we continue our tour with the Nemrut Mountain Ruins, which is the highest "Open Air Museum" in the world, with its magnificent sculptures that have been watching the sunrise and witnessing the sunset for thousands of years, at an altitude of 2,206 meters.
