TBD. Myra was an ancient leading city in Lycia where the small town of Demre is situated today. The main attractions at Myra are the large theatre which used to sit 13000 and the necropolis Lycian rock tombs. The tombs were always placed at the top of hills or on the cliffs as there was a belief that the dead would be transported to another world by a wing liked creature.
