Aphrodisias…

 

 

2 pics… One from Tetrapylon, the other from Theatre. From Aphrodisias…

When we were in Denizli for meeting, we visited one of the most beautiful historical places in Turkey. Just for 2 hours.

This ancient city of Aphrodisias is one of the most important archaeological sites of the Greek and Roman periods in Turkey. The name Aphrodisias is came from Aphrodite, the goddess of nature, beauty, love and plenty. Aphrodisias’ history begins a long and prosperous existence from the first century B.C. through the sixth century A.D.

Today, many of the monuments remain standing, and EXCAVATIONS have unearthed numerous fine marble statues and other artifacts.  I really impressed. The only thing that is unpleasent, was the colder weather! 


I  search and found that this archaeological research at Aphrodisias is sponsored by the
Institute of Fine Arts in cooperation with the Faculty of Arts and Science of New York University.

I can advise that you have to see this beauty especially in warmer season..
