The place where you may touch history in a direct meaning of a word - noone limits your moves on the territory. And truly many tombs are well-preserved.

When tourists write how the amphitheater is well preserved you can only smile. If you look at the photo from 1957, you can see that only the back wall is partially preserved, and in front of it is a pile of debris and a grass-covered stage. Asia minor is a seismically active region and Hierapolis was destroyed by an earthquake in Roman times. Recurring earthquakes destroyed ancient ruins until the great Thracian earthquake toppled the remains of the ancient city in 1354. This" well-preserved " amphitheater is the result of half a century of work by Italian archaeologists from the so-called MAIER mission. Only the clearing of the ground of the auditorium and the orchestra lasted from 1957 to 1980! This is the most important stage, because you can disrupt the cultural layers, distort the Dating of the wreckage and ultimately not build an amphitheater as it was under the Emperor Septimius Severus. A sad example is the excavation of Troy by the world's most famous architect Heinrich Schliemann, who unearthed Troy, but not Homer's, skipping it in a fit of excitement. Therefore, several generations of Italian archaeologists initially led by Paolo Veronese (interesting coincidence?) they worked here for a long, long time. Veronese made an important decision to lay out all the artifacts found near the theater, then catalog and collect them. The cataloging of artefacts took place twice in Turin, because the number of marble elements that once made up the frontescena in the theater of Septimius Cervera is estimated at four thousand pieces. The most impressive element of the theater-porticos with columns frontescena didn`t exist in 2007, only the back wall of stone blocks.

Those two sites that are next to each other, will brings u in another dimension . The Natural pools , as known also as the cotton Castle, are simply amazing to watch and u can take a bath if u want in the numerous pool builds for the tourists and overlooking the splendid panorama. The white and light blue will catch u eyes . Then on the way to visit Hierapolis u can stop at the cleopatra bath/pool and site on antic Greek columns drawn on the bottom of the pools . And then comes the ancient ruins of Hierapolis where u will see remains of a thermal city destroyed on 60 by an earthquake :( We took a flight from Istambul to Denizli then found a “ private “ shuttle to the site . Flight was about 60$ and shuttle 70Tl. The entrance fee is for both sites and really affordable

A historical site of an Ancient City in 3rd bc. A huge place to roam around but interesting. Make sure you bring your hat and sunscreen as no trees or shade while you look around.
