There are plenty of cultural and historical attractions in and around Hisaronu, one of the most poignant being the ghost town of Kayakoy.

The most famous of these is probably the Lycian rock tombs, which were chiselled into the hills above the town itself thousands of years ago. This region of Turkey is famous for its heritage and, luckily, the ruins of several ancient cities are all close by to Hisaronu and can be easily reached by bus. These include the remains of Tlos, the oldest known city in the Lycian region, while Xanthos and Letoon are further afield and have been combined and recognised as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
