‘Ilcenin 6 meydanina Osmanli Cesmesi’ projesi kapsaminda Dokumapark’a, Emirgan Cesmesi’nin anitsal degeri olan bir örnegini insa ettik. Osmanli Devleti’nin su kulturune getirmis oldugu mana degerini anlatmak amaciyla Osmanli dönemi cesmelerinin örneklerini ilcenin meydanlarina kazandiriyoruz. Kent Ormani ve Park Orman’dan sonra 3.

This is really my third visit of Diocaesarea Olba. With my first and second too-short-visit, finally I was able to spend some more time in this ancient city Personally I understand there are "two parts" of Olba: *The first location - where the Hellenistic Temple of Zeus, Arch of Colonaded Street, Byzantine Gate and Roman Temple of Tyche are situated. Most of the tourists visit this location only. Entrance fee is 10 Turkish Lira. *The second location unguarded - where the grande aqueduct, roman theatre, nymphaeum. To reach this area, either by car or walking are the only options. There is no public transport as this acropolis is literally in the middle of nowhere. Behind the grande aqueduct there is vast valley of many romans' rock tombs with beautiful carving, (maybe) small church, cisterns, and more. I have no idea how vast the valley is, but if we keep walking along the valley, it may be endless. My travel partner thought the aqueduct was higher size in in ancient time too.
