Birthplace of Legends: St. Nicholas, Apollo & Artemis
Did you know that Saint Nicholas, famously known as Santa Claus, was born in Patara around 280 AD? During his lifetime, Patara was a flourishing city, but as its harbor filled with silt, its significance waned. St. Nicholas eventually moved to Myra (Demre), where he became the Bishop and a revered saint.
According to Greek mythology, Patara is also the birthplace of the divine twins Apollo and Artemis, children of Zeus and Leto. Legend has it that Leto gave birth to them after enduring great pain, finding solace by wrapping her arms around palm trees.
