The winding road leading to Labranda is in a very bad state because of the trucks coming and going to the surrounding quarries, so it is recommended to drive cautiously.
In the 6C and 5C BC, Labranda was already renowned for its sanctuary dedicated to Zeus Stradios (Zeus Labraundos), a deity worshipped only by the Carians, who seems to have been their war-god as Carian coins show him carrying a double axe (labrys) and a spear.
The Carian Princess is exhibited in a banqueting hall, similar to the Andron of Mausolus in Labranda, greeting the guests dressed in a floating garb with the gold ornaments.
