Stop 1
Perge Ancient City is a well-preserved archaeological site located near Antalya in southern Turkey. Once a prominent city of the ancient Pamphylia region, it was founded around 1000 BCE and flourished under Greek and Roman rule. Perge is known for its impressive ruins, including a grand theater, a stadium, Roman baths, colonnaded streets, and monumental gates. The city was also visited by Saint Paul during his missionary journeys, adding to its historical and religious significance.

Aspendos Theatre is one of the best-preserved ancient Roman theaters in the world, located near Antalya, Turkey. Built in the 2nd century CE during the reign of Emperor Marcus Aurelius, it could seat up to 15,000–20,000 spectators. The theater is renowned for its remarkable acoustics and architectural perfection, with a well-preserved stage building and seating area. Still used today for concerts and performances, Aspendos stands as a testament to Roman engineering and cultural life.

Manavgat Falls is a beautiful and popular natural attraction located near the town of Manavgat, around 80 km east of Antalya, Turkey. Set on the Manavgat River, the waterfall is not very high—about 5 meters—but it stretches wide, creating a spectacular and foamy cascade. Surrounded by lush greenery and shaded picnic areas, the site is ideal for relaxing in nature. The area features tea gardens, cafes, and walking paths, making it a favorite spot for both locals and tourists. Though swimming is not allowed near the falls due to strong currents, nearby sections of the river offer water activities like rafting.

The Temple of Apollo in Side, Turkey, is a stunning ancient Roman structure built around the 2nd century CE, dedicated to Apollo, the god of music, light, and prophecy. Set dramatically on the edge of the Mediterranean Sea, the temple once featured 34 elegant Corinthian columns, though only five remain standing today. These iconic columns, beautifully restored, are especially striking at sunset. The site is steeped in legend—some say it was where Cleopatra and Mark Antony first met. Surrounded by other ancient ruins and offering sweeping sea views, the Temple of Apollo is a must-visit for history lovers and photographers alike.
