Southeast Anatolia

Mountain Of Nemrut

Rising majestically in southeastern Turkey's Adıyaman province is the iconic Nemrut Dağı mountain. Its broad summit reaches 3,050 m (10,010 ft), where one can find one of the country's most significant archaeological sites. Surrounding Nemrut Dağı, dense pine and oak forests cloak steep slopes sustaining diverse wildlife. Villages scattered in valleys retain traditional lifestyles.
