The Cilician Gates

The Cilician Gates is the main pass through the Tarsus Mountains.  This pass connects Syria and Asia Minor.  This mountain pass is located about 30 miles north of Tarsus.


The "Gates" are pretty much like any mountain pass you've driven through.  But here are a few views of the mountains in the area.  The mountains are quite rugged.
