Pick up from your hotel in Pamukkale and depart for Aphrodisias Tour. After about 1,5 hour drive we will reach the ancient site, Aphrodisias. Aphrodisias is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the most impressive ancient cities in Anatolia, known for its remarkably well-preserved ruins and exquisite Roman sculptures. Being built near a marble quarry, Aphrodisias became a major center for sculpture and art in the Roman period. The city was dedicated to Aphrodite, the goddess of love, and named after her in the 2nd century BC. Excavations have been carried out since 1961, initiated by Professor Kenan Erim, who is buried near the Tetrapylon. During the tour, we will explore major highlights of the site including the grand Theatre, the elegant Baths of Hadrian, the impressive Tetrapylon, the Temple of Aphrodite, and the remarkably intact Stadium which could hold up to 30,000 spectators. We will also visit the Aphrodisias Museum, home to an extraordinary collection of sculptures and artifacts unearthed from the site. Next, we will stop by a local Carpet Center, as Aphrodisias is known for its traditional handwoven carpets. Before heading back, we will take a walk through the lively archaeological streets and enjoy the peaceful atmosphere of the site. After the tour, transfer back to your hotel in Pamukkale. We hope your tour was a memorable one and we look forward to seeing you again on another TravelShop Booking experience.
