Great read! I have never visited ruins of classical architecture, so this post really interests me. I would like to visit a place like this in the future.
Reading about the dog barking at you while you were on your bicycle made me chuckle a bit. I can relate. I had many similar experiences when I was a young kid. I usually kicked at the dogs when they tried to chase me. I was scared, but they were more scared when I kicked at them 😂.
Free Lokma? I don't know what it is, but if it's sweet, then I would like it too. Very curious why it's free 😜
The mosque looks wonderful. I hope they don't restrict people from taking photos of such a majestic building.
The ancient ruins of Perge look wonderful. The stonework really shows the skills of the masons back then.
I imagine a scene at the twin towers during their early days would have looked majestic, because the ruins already look beautiful. And they say the Corinthian ornaments are the neatest of their kind.
It's so cool that you can just pick up a nice cactus fruit as a snack during your stroll. I like that 🤩.
And then a refreshing experience at the waterfall is a good break to cool down.
Your photos of the statues in the museum show the incredible talent of the artists back then and the rich history of Perge as well. It's interesting.
By the way, your dinner looks nice, but it doesn't seem enough because you had such an adventure... Did you manage to cover all these areas in just one day? Awesome! Thanks for sharing.
