    Butterfly Valley

    Fethiye Butterfly Valley is one of the 100 mountains proposed to be preserved as a world heritage due to the endemic species that it possesses. The Valley of Butterflies located on the piedmonts of Babadag mountain was declared a natural protection area on February 8, 1995, and restricted to all kinds of constructions.
