Selectum Hotels & Resorts is delighted to support the Merhaba Günü events, which hold a special place in Bodrum’s cultural memory, as the accommodation sponsor. Brought to life under the leadership of the Bodrum Maritime Museum, Merhaba Günü brings together once again the concept of “merhaba,” identified with the world of thought of Halikarnas Fisherman Cevat Şakir Kabaağaçlı, through the values of love of nature, peace, tolerance, communication, and cultural sharing.
Reaching a wider sphere of influence every year, the events aim to build a broader cultural network starting from Bodrum through talks, exhibitions, workshops, theatre, city tours, and various art and culture gatherings. Following the declaration of April 17 as “Merhaba Günü” in 2022 in memory of Halikarnas Fisherman’s birthday, the events have continued to grow with a multi-stakeholder structure.
As part of its regularly organized social responsibility projects, Selectum Hotels & Resorts has begun supporting the ongoing excavations of the ancient city of Sillyon, carried out with the dedicated efforts of archaeologist Assoc. Prof. Dr. Murat Taşkıran and his team. The aim is to uncover and preserve the cultural heritage of this ancient land where their hotels are located, and to pass it on to future generations.
Sillyon is a valuable cultural heritage site that was located in the Pamphylia Region during the Ancient Period, and is now situated in the Kocagözler area of Yanköy Neighborhood in Serik district, Antalya province. Despite being besieged by Alexander the Great around 334 BC, Sillyon remained unconquered, and in the 4th century BC, it was a powerful city that even minted its own coins.
In 2024, the excavations in the Sacred Harbour Area, which includes the temples of Athena, Apollo and Demeter and is located east of Side Harbour, were carried out by the Ancient City of Side Excavations Bureau under the auspices of the Ministry of Culture and Tourism of the Republic of Turkey.
