- 4.5 Aslantepe Ruins (80 reviews)
-Excellent little site
Ancient Ruins
A partially excavated site dating primarily from the Hittite era back to 5000 BC. It has been the subject of ongoing work by Italian universities since 1976 and has been done up as a great little open air museum. There is very clear and informative signs in Turkish, Italian and English across the whole site which not only explains what you are seeing, but the story and social history associated with it. All in all the site only takes 30 - 45 min to see. There is no entrance fee but the very friendly and patient Turkish site guard will follow you around and point out the way to go and important things you may otherwise miss. Give him a tip when you are finished and you may get cay (tea) served in the little open garden near his office. It is a short taxi ride out to the site (about 20 TL) and you can organise for the taxi to come pick you back up at set time (transport may be otherwise be a bit sparse as it is on the periphery of Malatya).
