How to get out Assos
Babakale, some 20 km to the west, on the edge of the peninsula, is a village known for its well-preserved citadel which sits on a cape that is exactly the westernmost point of Asian mainland.
Zeus Altar (Zeus Altarı), 4 km inland (look for the signpost on the main highway) on the hills above the neighbouring village of Küçükkuyu to east, about 25 km away from Assos, was where offerings to the prime god of Greek pantheon was made in ancient times. Other than a marble base, not much is left from the actual altar, but the place is located in a lush forest and offers commanding views of the Aegean.
