316. Midas' City

Midas Şehri (Midas' City) was the name given to the rock-cut settlement established by the Phrygians around what is now the small village of Yazılıkaya (Inscribed Rock), 72 km north of Afyon and 107 km south of Eskişehir. Its most conspicuous monument is a soaring rock-cut tomb that is known as the Tomb of Midas because the Phrygian inscription on the facade mentions a Midas (although he was not necessarily the well known King Midas of the ass's ears).
