Located at the 33rd kilometer of the Alanya-Gazipaşa highway, the ancient city takes its name from Iotape, the wife of Commagene King Antiochos IV (38-72 AD). The city minted coins in its own name from Emperor Trajan to Valerian. The ruins have both Roman and Byzantine features. The acropolis of the city is a high promontory that extends to the sea. 

Since this part is surrounded by walls, it has the appearance of a castle (acropolis). The buildings are quite destroyed. In the small valley where the acropolis is connected to the land, there is a harbor road that runs in an east-west direction. A large part of the harbor road has remained under the highway that passes through here today. From the pedestals it can be understood that on both sides of the ancient street there were crepis consisting of three steps with statues standing between them. The inscribed pedestals of the statues contain information about the successful and philanthropic citizens of the city.

In the bay to the east of the acropolis, there is a rectangular basilica and a small church with a single nave, attributed to Hagios Georgios Stratelates because of the fresco with an inscription. There are also remains of a bathhouse in the same area, similar in plan to the other bathhouses of the region. 

The infrastructure system of the bath and the city can still be seen. Among the remains of the ancient city on the sea side, there is a temple dedicated to Trajan, according to an inscription found nearby. The temple has survived to the present day only at the level of Stylobat. The remains north of the modern road consist mainly of tombs in the necropolis area, houses and fortifications, some of which can be traced. In the necropolis there are monumental tombs as well as simple ones, which are unique examples of the tomb architecture and burial customs of the region.
