Located on the Southwest Coast of Turkey, Bodrum is a stunning peninsula rich in history, culture, and natural beauty. Once home to Ionia and important Greek cities, Bodrum is known as one of the birthplaces of Western civilization. Over the centuries, Greeks, Romans, Byzantines, and Turks have all made their mark on this fertile Aegean land.
Discover Bodrum’s Rich History
Bodrum is home to the legendary Mausoleum of Halicarnassus, one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. The iconic Bodrum Castle, built by the Crusaders using the stones of the Mausoleum, stands as a symbol of the city’s diverse history.
In 1925, Cevat Şakir Kabaağaçlı, also known as “The Fisherman of Halicarnassus”, was exiled to Bodrum. Instead of imprisonment, he fell in love with the town and introduced the world to the Blue Voyage, putting Bodrum on the map as a stunning coastal retreat.
Today, Bodrum is not only a summer hotspot for sun and sea lovers but also a year-round haven for artists, writers, chefs, and entrepreneurs seeking a laid-back, bohemian lifestyle.
