A good reason to visit.

by Tdiver - last update: Oct 28, 2007

Apollo Smintheon

Temple of Apollo, Apollon Smintheon, Gulpinar.
The ruins are probably the only reason to visit the village which in olden times was called Chryse and they are fairly impressive, with work ongoing in the fields behind the main temple.
If you're coming from the north or going that way, then stop by Tuzla (7km) and the old mosque with its old graveyard.
See more on these in the things to do pages.
Old mosque, Tuzla, near Gulpinar.
You can get here by dolmus from Ezine, Geyikli or Behramkale (Assos).

Pros:"Great ruins."
Cons:"A bit of a drive from the main D550 highway."
In A Nutshell:"Liked it a lot and would like to see it in a few years time."
