Overview
Marmaris- The face of stunning natural beauty, rich history, and vibrant local culture
Marmaris is one of the most famous touristic cities in Turkey, part of the Mediterranean Sea between Turkey and Greece. The answer to the question “where do the Mediterranean Sea and the Aegean Sea meet” is Marmaris.
It is not just the sea or nature that attracts people to Marmaris from all over the world. Not even the rich history reaching from past civilizations to today. There must be something more. We shall let an expert talk on Mediterranean history. Fernand Braudel in his book named “Mediterranean” says: “What is this Mediterranean? All of a thousand things. Not one landscape, countless landscapes. Not one sea, many seas following each other. Not one civilization, many civilizations piled on each other”. Marmaris is a place sheltering many of these landscapes, seas, and civilizations.
