Places to Visit and See in Aydıncık

Kazankaya Canyon: There are traces of ancient settlements in Kazankaya Canyon, which is 10 kilometers away from Aydıncık center. The entrance of Kazankaya Canyon starts from the village of Kazankaya, after which it is named. Kazankaya Canyon is 10 kilometers long and there are two very high cliffs at the entrance of the canyon. The rock on the left is 1180 meters high, and the rock on the right is 1160 meters high. The width of the Kazankaya Canyon is 50 meters and the depth of the canyon is between 200 and 300 meters. At the entrance of the rocks at the entrance of the canyon, a city wall was built to protect it from external dangers.

The Çekerek River, one of the branches of Yeşilırmak, flows through the Kazankaya Canyon. On the rocks rising on both sides of the valley where the Çekerek river passes, there are steps of stairs, hollows, wall remains and the relief of the goddess Cybele. Until October, the waters of the Çekerek river flow calmly. When the waters of the river rise, rafting can be done. In addition, otters live in the Çekerek river. If you are lucky, you may have the chance to see otters; who knows? There are water crossings within the Kazankaya Canyon tour. Maybe it will be useful to go prepared like a spare shoe in your suitcase.

Kybele Relief: The Kybele Relief, located in a niche in the Kazankaya Canyon, is 3.16 meters long. Cybele Relief symbolizes abundance and fertility. The Kybele Relief looks towards the castle on the other side of the Çekerek river. Although most of the Cybele Relief is intact, its face and chest area are fragmented, as it is the target of treasure hunters today.
