PAMUKKALE & AFRODISIAS and LAODICEA
2 Days 1 Nights
DAY 1 Early morning flight or overnight bus to Izmir. Drive to PAMUKKALE which is unique in the world with its cascading water from the ciffs forming crystallized, dazzling white "Frozen Waterfalls" The thermal waters have been used for therapeutic treatments since the Roman period. You will have time to enjoy the therapeutic hot spring waters. Then, visit the Roman city HIERAPOLIS which contains wonderful necropolis and the theatre. Return to hotel and overnight.

DAY 2 Around 10:00 you will be picked up from your hotel in Denizli or Pamukkale and drive to ancient site of Afrodisias and Laodicea and explore these amazing sites.
Laodicea is one of the Seven Churches of Revelation written about by St. John.

*Afrodisias was named after Aphrodite, the goddess of love, fertility, and nature. It was a famous site for the cult worship of Aphrodite and it is not known if any Christians lived in this town. It probably was the type of city St. Paul told Christians to avoid! Besides the fame of the cult of Aphrodite, the settlement was famous for its school of sculpture. Nearby marble supplies, as well as famous scholars, attracted students to its school and created a demand for its work throughout the Roman Empire. As a result an amazing collection of quality sculpture has been found. Today Aphrodisias is a wonderful site to explore and one your favorites places will probably be the oval shaped 30,000 seat stadium. As you sit down and look at the field you can almost hear the ancient roar of the crowd as they watched chariot races or gladiators. You can also visit the Tetrapylon, the Bishop’s Palace, the city baths, and of course what would an ancient city be without a theatre. This one comes complete with individually labeled seats.
