Didim

🎨Museums & Current Prices 2026

Didyma (Temple Of Apollo)

Located right in the heart of the Didim district (Hisar Mahallesi), this is not just a pile of rocks—it was one of the most significant oracle complexes of the ancient world, rivaling Delphi.

It is famous for its massive, towering columns and the iconic carved stone Medusa head.

2026 Entry Price: €6

What to look for: Look closely at the bases of the standing columns; they features incredibly intricate, unique relief carvings that differ from one column to the next.

Miletus Ancient City

Situated about 25 km north of Didim's center near Balat village, Miletus was a massive, ancient maritime power and the home of famous philosophers like Thales.

The crown jewel here is the breathtaking Roman theater that once seated 15,000 spectators.

What to look for: Climb to the very top rows of the theater for an sweeping panoramic view over what used to be a bustling ancient harbor (now an inland plain due to river silt).

Miletus Museum (Milet Müzesi)

Conveniently located right next to the Miletus archaeological site, this modern indoor museum serves as the treasure chest for the region. It houses artifacts recovered not only from Miletus, but also from Didyma and the nearby ancient city of Priene.

What to look for: The museum garden features an atmospheric display of massive stone lions, column capitals, and Roman inscriptions, while the indoor halls hold delicate coins, jewelry, and terracotta cult figurines.

Pro-Tips for Visiting Didim's Museums

💳 The Aegean Museum Pass Option: If you are planning to venture slightly outside of Didim to see neighboring heavy-hitters like Ephesus or Aphrodisias (€12), do not buy individual tickets. Ask the ticket booths for the MuseumPass Aegean. It covers all regional sites, bypasses ticket queues, and saves significant money if you hit more than three major ruins.

Beating the Heat: The Temple of Apollo and Miletus ruins have virtually zero shade.

In the summer months, plan your site walks for early morning (right at 8:30 AM opening) and duck into the air-conditioned Miletus Museum during the blistering midday heat.

Footwear Matters: The marble walkways at the Temple of Apollo and the ancient steps of the Miletus theater are worn incredibly smooth and can be slick, even when dry. Leave the flip-flops at the beach and wear sturdy sneakers.
