JEEP SAFARI

The land of lights,
where the torrent of civilizations created in the time tunnel and
gliding from inaccessible summits of wild Taurus
Mountains meet to the foamy dark blue
water of Mediterranean . Fethiye is a pretty town at the
hillsides of the Mount Mendos, the part of the Tourus Mountain
chains , and surrounds the bay that it has given its name to. The high
mountain range formed by rises and falls of the crust during the
Tertiary Geological Period, and hundreds of bays lying at the
mountainside seem to embrace each other along the Fethiye shore line.
This mountain range (it was called the Kragos and Antikragos in the
antique period) with an altitude of more than 6560 feet (2000m.) forms
the southwest end of the Toros (Taurus) chain and lies parallel to the
shore without a single passage to the inner regions . On a
warm and sunny winter day , peculiar to the Mediterranean
climate while you are sipping at your Turkish tea or Turkish
coffee , at one of the loca l tea gardens , along the coast, these
mountains with pine trees at their skirts, white snow and mist on their
summits will once more welcome you to heaven.
