A few minutes outside Altinkum is Didim, where the ruins of the famous Apollo Temple are found. This temple's porch originally held 120 columns and Apollo's twin sister, Artemis, also had 120 columns in her temple near Ephesus. Ancient Didyma was not a town, but the home of a god and his priest. In the temple grounds are fragments of its rich decoration including a striking head of Medusa [she of hair on snakes]. Just over the road you can relax in an original stone house, sampling some local cuisine, whilst the sun sets over the temple!
