A Trip for those who wish to visit the real Santa who lived and died in today’s town Demre, between Kas and Antalya on the Coast of the Mediterranean. Saint Nicholas, the famous Myra Bishop in Demre 5’th Century, secretly helped people and became a legend and kids’ favourite hero. The real-life Father Christmas, Saint Nicholas, is buried near his birthplace of Demre, a town on the Mediterranean coast of Turkey, in the church that bears his name. The church still has many well-preserved wall paintings and ornaments. Although the church is modest and small, it is probably because it’s more likeable compared to more enormous complex constructions. This excursion is suitable for everyone who likes to have an early start to the day and wants to see places reflecting the culture of the land.
