Of course, it would be unfair to associate Bodrum, which is a vibrant district in all four seasons, with the summer season only. Despite this, it is an accepted fact that the population in the region increases by an average of 10 times during the summer season.
In Bodrum, formerly known as Halicarnassus, you will find not only the sun, the sparkling sea or the wide beaches, but also the footprints of thousands of years of history and the mystery of mythology. Bodrum Castle, which was entitled to receive the title of "The Best Museum of the Year" for a while, is located at the very heart of the district.
