Monumental stone heads of Mount Nemrut and other UNESCO-listed statues in southeastern Türkiye remain undamaged despite the powerful earthquakes that struck the region on February 6

The site in southern Türkiye features a giant 10-meter high, seated statues of King Antiochus I and surrounded by ancient gods, including Zeus and Apollo.

Irfan Cetinkaya, head of a culture and tourism association in the province's district of Kahta, where Mount Nemrut is located, noted that the earthquake caused severe damage in the region. As the country begins its period of recovery, Centinkaya invited visitors to return and visit the site.
