| Butterfly Valley (Kelebekler Vadisi) is a valley on the | |
| Mediterranean Region of Turkey. | |
| Access to the coast is only available by boat or via some | |
| serious trek. The valley is known | |
| for its natural beauty, and particularly the unusual Jersey | |
| Tiger butterfly. | |

| History</strong> | |
| Some Lycian ruins in the area date from the fourth century, and | |
| terraced gardens were prevalent under the different | |
| civilizations that lived in the area. In the late sixties, the | |
| large fruit trees of traditional agriculture were cut down as | |
| part of a process to modernize farming, but the isolation of the | |
| area meant that the new system was never properly attended to. | |
| Eventually, the area was redesigned as a tourist attraction, | |
| emphasizing a back to nature angle with campsites. | |
| <strong>Navigation</strong> | |
| The valley is located between to cliffs on the Mediterranean. | |
| There is a path you can hike up to the town, but it is dangerous | |
| and not recommended. | |
| <strong>Getting there</strong><strong> | |
| </strong> | |
| From Fethiye there are dolmuses at 7, 11, and 17 to �l�deniz, | |
| returning at 8:40, 12:40, 18:40. From there, the trip to Faralya | |
| takes about a half hour by boat, departures at 11, 14, and 18. | |
