Situated north of K\u00fc\u00e7\u00fckkuyu, in a valley perched high on a hill, Adatepe is a stunning village where history and nature meet in captivating harmony. Once home to Turks and Greeks, this village underwent significant changes during the Great Population Exchange of 1924; when the Greeks arrived in Greece, Muslim Turks from Crete settled here. Adatepe, a fairytale town of stone houses surrounded by olive groves and cool, shady streets at the southern foot of the Kaz Mountains, attracts attention with its typically two-story stone buildings and courtyard gardens. Discovered in the 1980s by a group of people fleeing urban life, the village has been restored while remaining faithful to its traditional architecture. Today, locals and visitors live in harmony, meeting in the square where two ancient plane trees grow, in the heart of the village. Adatepe is a unique blend of history and nature.

The Altar of Zeus is located on one of the peaks of the Kaz Mountains, offering a magnificent view of the sea. This hill is known in mythology as "Gargaros" in the Iliad and is believed to be the place from which Zeus observed the Trojan War. The altar's throne-like stone structure, accessible by stairs, and its location overlooking the entire Gulf of Edremit make this location unique.<\/p>\n
