Info from www.lycianturkey.com Patara's main avenue was grand, as befits a capital city. It is one of the widest streets in Anatolia, as well as one of the best preserved. The date of the street is unknown, but it is thought to have been built in the early Roman Era. So far 98 meters has been dug out and the rest stretches along the harbor side (now under the ground and water) to the north all the way to the Harbor Bath where its northern extension has been found. The southern end of the street must stretch to the amphitheater through the southern gate. The avenue was once undoubtedly very impressive, some of the columns that once lined it as part of a covered passage are made of granite brought from Egypt.
