Where is Andriake?
About 5km southwest of Demre's centre is the seafront settlement of Çayağzı, called Andriake by the Romans at a time when the port was an important entrepot for grain on the sea route between the eastern Mediterranean and Rome. The ruins of ancient Andriake are strewn over a wide area to the north and south of the access road approaching Çayağzı. The great granary built by Hadrian and completed in AD 139 lies in the southern section.
