From the first glance, it's clear that Bodrum is divided into two distinctive parts. The eastern side of the resort boasts the best party spots, where tourists from all corners of the world come to dance to electrifying music from dusk until dawn. In addition to the lively nightlife, East Bodrum boasts a long, narrow beach with a gentle slope into the water and a pristine seabed, perfect for those looking to soak up the sun and enjoy the sea. The western side of the resort is characterized by a higher price level, more upscale local hotels, and elite shopping centres. The main attraction on this side of the coast is yachting, although the nightlife is not as vibrant as that of the east. Regardless of which part of the coast you choose, Bodrum is an ideal destination for diving, with its rich underwater world that even experienced divers will find awe-inspiring. However, the birthplace of the famous historian Herodotus has much more to offer travellers beyond its stunning coastline and modern tourist infrastructure. After a period of decline in the 3rd and 4th centuries BC, Bodrum was resurrected in the Middle Ages as a small fishing village. The St. Peter's Castle, the ancient amphitheatre, and the Mindos Gate are historical landmarks that have stood the test of time and survived all eras of Bodrum, offering a glimpse into the city's rich past.
