Istanbul

Istanbul, formerly known as Constantinople, is the largest city in Turkey, serving as the country’s economic, cultural and historic hub. The city straddles the Bosporus strait, lying in both Europe and Asia.

Hierapolis

Known as the place of St. Philip’s martyrdom, and commemorated by his Martyrium building, Hierapolis, with its several churches, became an important religious center for the Eastern Roman Empire.

Library of Celsus 

The library of Celsus, located in Ephesus,  is one of the only remaining examples of a library from the Roman Empire. The library  was the third-largest library in the Roman world behind only Alexandria and Pergamum.

Trajan Fountain

The Fountain of Trajan was built in the 2nd century AD, and it was dedicated to the emperor Trajan. A colossal statue of Trajan had been placed over the pool. Nowadays, only the feet of that statue have survived.
