Castle of St. Peter

The most prominent landmark of the Bodrum peninsula is the Castle of St Peter. An impressive silouette, its stone walls and moat are steeped in history and it is a true marvel of architecture. Strolling along its winding interior paths and gardens and through its interior nooks and crevices gives you a sense of life back then. Standing on the coastline of Bodrum town proper, it is elegant, majestic and appears on most picture postcards of the region. Any good travel guide will always list it as the first thing to see when you arrive in the area.
