Later on, delve into the manifold wonders of the Silk Market, inside the exotic Covered Bazaar, where you will be able to feel and appreciate the fine quality of the silks on sale. After lunch at a typical kebab house, set off for one of two journeys: ascending to the top of Mount Olympos by cable car or visiting the famous Inkaya Plane Tree.
