Mount Nemrut is a wonderful site for seeing a perfect example of a tumulus tomb. It is located in southeastern Turkey, at one of the tallest mountain series of the Taurus Mountains. This peak is located around 40 kilometers (25 miles) north of Kahta, near Adiyaman. The primary entryway to Mount Nemrut is Kahta, which is only a 40-minute drive or bus ride from Adiyaman airport.
