Chimera takes his name from the small pieces that are the result of natural gas compression. It is situated in a scenic location close to the sea, the flames coming out of the stones never dies. The natural gas source on the rocks north of the Çıralı beach was the subject of ancient Greek mythology. According to Greek mythology, the legend is as follows: Hipponoes, the son of Ephrarian King Glaukos, kills his brother Belleros in a hunting party and takes the name of Bellerophontes, which means "Eat Belleros".
The Bellerophon, expelled from Ephyra, takes refuge in the king of Argos. The King of Argos, unable to make himself fit for this youthful killing, sends him to the Lycian King. The Lycian king does not want to kill this miserable youngster and sends him to fight with the monster Chimera, a lion-headed, goat-bodied, snake-tailed, and flaming mouth who lives in the mountain of Olympos. Bellerophontes rides on a winged horse called Pegassos and goes to fight with Chimera. When Chimera attacks, Pegassos takes off and Bellerophontes descends to the ground and pours the spear and monster seven times below ground. But Chimera continues to burn flames seven times under the ground. According to the myth that Anatolia has been telling us for thousands of years and Homer's transfer to us this way, the flames still burning are the flames that spring out from the seven-fold bottom of Chimera's place. The place where Khimaira is located is called Lykia in the city of Olympos (Çıralı) behind Yanartaş.
