I keep hearing about Göbekli Tepe. Is it worth a trip and how do I get there?

It's one of the oldest known monumental sites in the world. Base yourself in Şanlıurfa and take a taxi or tour; it's outside the city.

Visit the Şanlıurfa Archaeology Museum too. It has finds from Göbekli Tepe and other sites in the region.

In Şanlıurfa, the Balıklıgöl (pool of sacred fish) area is lovely in the evening.
