Title

Mykale Tours-Turkish travel agency and tour operator in Turkey

Description

The ancient city of Aphrodisias, dedicated to the goddess of love, was known throughout the ancient world for its distinctive school of sculpture. Statues with corresponding signatures were discovered from Spain to Germany and virtually everywhere in the Roman world. Its classical ruins are numerous and well-preserved.

Just 25 miles east of Antalya lies the remains of one of the best preserved theaters in the world. Built in the second century, it seats 15,000 people. So perfect are its acoustics that even today a coin dropped from the orchestra pit can be clearly heard in the top row. Just beyond lie the remains of the acropolis, agora and a Roman aqueduct.

In the heart of Anatolia lies a rugged, winding landscape where the intricate carvings of nature and man have been recorded for centuries. Above ground, the extremely malleable volcanic tuff has been shaped by the elements into a balancing act of cones and "fairy chimneys." Explore the valley of Goreme where churches were carved into the stone of the region between the 7th and 13th centuries. At its height, Goreme is said to have had a church for every day of the year. The interiors of the caves are decorated with colorful, biblical frescoes celebrating the beliefs of early Christians. Descend beneath the surface of the earth and visit cities as deep as 140 feet underground where early Christians fleeing persecution could live for months at a time undetected.
