Marmaris, Turkey
MARMARIS rivals Kusadasi as the largest and most developed Aegean resort. Its huge marina and proximity to Dalaman airport mean that
tourists pour in more or less non-stop during the warmer months. According to legend, the place was named when Süleyman the Magnificent,
not finding the castle here to his liking, was heard to mutter Mimari as ("Hang the architect") – a command which should perhaps still apply to
the designers of the seemingly endless high-rises. Ulusal Egemenlik Bulvari cuts Marmaris in half, and the maze of narrow streets east of it is
home to most things of interest, though little is left of the sleepy fishing village that Marmaris was a mere two decades ago. Only the Kaleiçi
district, the warren of streets at the base of the tiny castle, offers a pleasant wander, and the castle museum (Tues–Sun 8am–noon & 1–5.30pm;
$1) has a worthwhile archeology and ethnography collection.
