A majestic and breath taking view. The remaining ruin still give a glimpse of its original beauty.
Standing at the top you can feel the King eye gazing on his kingdom
Trojan Horse of Troy was the start at Canakkale and after lunch we headed to Acropolis - Bergama's richest archaeological dramatic site perched atop a high steep-sided hill. The ruins of the Acropolis is well preserved until this day albeit completed in the 5th century BC and allows tourists to have a glimpse of ancient Turkey when glory, power and war reigned.
2 hours of walking in this huge area indeed was quiet exhausting though you can take shorts break, rest and continue walking. Acropolis indeed is a magnificent and marvellous site and to complete your visit, take the cable car ride to the highest hilltop point for another stunning scenery.On your way back down, there's stalls selling food and drinks. I tried the hot yoghurt spicy drink and loved it. A little tangy and aromatic, the drink to keep the body warm during winter.
Very well looked after historic site, great to see so much history.
Just wow. You can walk on every stone and old wall. Just leave the woodn way and explore yourself this place
The views are amazing and so much of the 'ruins' are intact. If this were in Britain it would be overrun with people-the day I went two others were there!
Simply incredibly. I did walk all the historic remains. It is breathtaking. Huge and we'll preserved.
I believe Pergamon acropolis to be a bit overrated. Being an acropolis, you get wonderful views of the valley, mountain and lake. In its day, it had the second biggest library after Alexandria, a theatre that fits 10000 people and was the centre of culture during the Hellenistic period. But, with such large crowds, it lacks the peace and serenity that we go to ruins for and the signs are disappointingly uninformative with a bunch of architectural jargon few would understand or care for. Still recommended you visit but I prefer Asklepion
