OVERVIEW
Explore seaside Urla and come away with an understanding of its importance through history and how the town has evolved into a haven for food and art. Life in Urla has always revolved around the waterfront as you will discover while enjoying a cup of robust, aromatic Turkish coffee at a café overlooking the sea. In ancient times, Urla flourished through agriculture, especially the production of olive oil from the surrounding groves of olive trees. At the Klazomenai Archaeological Site, you will see a workshop where the oil was first produced 2,600 years ago. It is the oldest such place on the Anatolia peninsula. Today, Urla is better known for its street art, which adorns many of the cafés, art galleries and shops along the pedestrian-only cobblestone alleyway Sanat Sokagi. During free time there, you can shop for items such as Urla wines and handmade soaps before dining at a popular restaurant.
