The Myndos Gate is situated at the eastern part of Bodrum. It was constructed 4th century B.C. and one of the popular historical sites on the Bodrum peninsula. It was the entrance gate to the ancient city of Halicarnassus on the west. When Alexander the Great has come for the city’s invasion, he was unable to pass this deep, broad trench in front of the gate.
