Fethiye Castle
It is believed that Fethiye Castle belongs to the Knights of St. John. The exact date of its construction is unknown, but it is known that it underwent repairs by the Knights of Rhodes in the 15th century.
Apart from a few inscriptions carved on the walls and a cistern with an uncertain history, there are small and simple two rock tombs on the east side of the hill. The castle, surrounded by a wall, is the place where the city was first founded.
Fethiye Castle is also located 10 minutes' walk from Amintas.
Paspatur Bazaar / Fethiye Old Town
Paspatur and its surroundings are where the old Fethiye was located. This is the most beautiful part of Fethiye center. It consists of 4-5 streets intersecting each other. Historic buildings from the Ottoman period to the present day are located here. The 18th-century Ottoman mosque, the aqueduct passing through the center of the market, and the Fethiye Hammam, which still serves today, are all located within the bazaar.
You can see restored old Fethiye houses with wooden bay windows, stroll through the authentic Paspatur Bazaar full of souvenir shops, jewelers, Turkish delight shops, and handmade rug stores, have a drink at its cafes, explore the shops on Umbrella Street (95th Street), shop, and take photos.

The promenade is a meeting point for Fethiye locals, attracting sports enthusiasts, picnickers, cyclists, dog walkers, fishermen, and those who take a stroll after dinner.
