Bodrum - Other Ancient Remains

Above the Mausoleion in Bodrum, to the northwest, is the ancient theater, from which there are extensive views. To the northeast are remains of a Doric stoa (colonnade), and above this the remains of a Temple of Ares (?). Still higher up, outside the town walls to east and west, are various tombs. At the entrance to the harbor fragments of the ancient piers survive.
