About Myra Acropolis
The acropolis of Myra stands on the Demre plateau, on the mountain above the ancient theatre of the Lycian and Roman city whose early bishops included Saint Nicholas. It is largely destroyed and, like the Roman theatre and baths below, only partly excavated. The theatre beneath it was destroyed by an earthquake in 141 and rebuilt, and cliffs nearby hold two necropoleis of Lycian rock-cut tombs with temple fronts.
