This ancient city is located partly under the present city and partly on the peninsula in the east-west direction. There is not a visible structure that can be reached from Antiphellos to the present, except the Amphitheater. Where the walls approach the harbor, today is a converted church and (on hthe southwest of this church) ruins of the temple are located. The best preserved parts of the city are the ancient amphytheater and the graves. The theater, which overlooks the sea at the height of the peninsula and has beautiful stone workmanship, has typical Hellenistic theater features. There is no stage part of the theater.

This gorgeous refurbished Greek amphitheater is one of the few that has an incredible view of the sea. It is within walking distance of the Kas center, so it is often a relaxed spot where people go to hang out after a fun night in town.

The city of Antiphellos is one of the Lycian Civilization’s most important harbor cities. It was established to serve as the harbor of the ancient city of Phellos, located near Cukurbag Village. Built on top of Kas, the city broke away from Phellos after getting rich from the cedar trade.

Antiphellos, known as Habesos or Habesa in the Lycian language, is one of the ancient settlements of the Lycian Region. The city, which later took the name Antiphellos, means "the place opposite the rocky ground", "opposite Phellos". It is one of the member cities of the Lycian Union, and it is known that it is the port of the city of Phellos in the north and has been living since the 6th century BC. In the Hellenistic Period, however, commercial ventures gain importance and Antiphellos develops more quickly in response to the decline of the main city, Phellos, and becomes an important port city during the Roman Empire. Antiphellos has been known as a commercial city since the middle of the 2nd century BC, even though it was limited to a single vote in the Lycian Union, both with its own coins and with the coins it issued on behalf of the union. Remains of the ancient city in Kas interior continue around the district and along the peninsula extending in the east-west direction. Remains of the Hellenistic city walls with rectangular stonework can be seen at the beginning of the peninsula and on the face facing Meis Island. In the southeast of the church, which has been converted into a mosque today, where the walls face the harbor, there are the remains of a temple with an unknown temenos. The temeno of the temple was made in rectogonal masonry with bossage. The original building was built in the 1st century BC, the later addition was AD. It is dated to the 3rd century.
