İVRİZ
The village of İvriz can be reached by a picturesque road from Ereğli (18 km / 11 miles). There, near a pond you can see one of Turkey's finest neo-Hittite rock- cut reliefs reprensenting king Varpalavas of Tuwanuva venerating the fertility god Tarhun. Tuwanuva was a Hittite city and in the Roman and Byzantine times it was known under the name Tyana. It is now called Kemerhisar because of its acqueduct, and it is located near Bor on the road to Niğde.
