  • About 45 km from Antalya, in Aspendos, there is a wonderful Roman Amphitheater which is the best Roman amphitheater preserved in the world.
    It was built in Hellenistic times and still in use, and holds 15,000 spectators.
    You can learn about Roman amphitheater through this one. The seats, emperor and choir places, the stages, backstage, and so on.
    I know you would not want to miss it!!!

  • Climb up to the hill, outside the amphitheater, and you will find the reminders of the city, and the place where the actors, and workers lived.
    The landscape is awesome, and the view from up there, into the amphitheater, gives a full understanding .

     Sounds like it would be fun to travel along sampling and comparing the cheeses. In China it was the Dofu, Noodles and local Wine. In japan the local Sake.
