    I have been there and it has an eery beauty. Someone (the Romans?) sure built to last.

    Hauntingly beautiful. I'm so sorry you've had such damage because of the flood. It's terrible isn't it. I just so glad we here in Canada can recuperate. If we watch the news we can see many who are not so fortunate. Good luck with your renovations, we both need it. I'm inexplicably calm about all this.

      hi Janice,....hope all is well with you. Yes I did visit here it was quite near where we were staying...only about 10 minutes to walk to. I love this place it is absolutely amazing....they have even filmed a few James Bond movies here. Can't believe it has stood up in good condition with all those earthquakes that have been in Istanbul.

    We really need to visit here again soon. It's about 7 or 8 years since we were last there and I have no photos of it. :)

    Hi Julia....I took lots of photos here and now they have a section where you can dress up like a Sultan and Harem girl and they take your pic...but quite pricey. Thanks for stopping by...:-)
