Coast of the Aegean Sea. Hilt. The temple in Turkey in the Hilt to which Egyptian dealers worshipped. The small town of Turkey, constructed during ancient times and remained partially so far
One of the most remained old cities of Turkey to the Mediterranean
Hilt - one of the biggest and perfectly remained ancient cities of Turkey to the Mediterranean. It is logical that in the summer in its ruins there are a lot of the guests making travel in Turkey though, having planned time of visit, tourist crowds really to avoid. This place, of course, cannot be passed. You will need at least 3 hours (partially for rest in a shadow) and a water bottle. In the beginning nearby these places Artemis's temple was located, and the beautiful harbour promoted small town blossoming; finally, there was a prospering capital of the Roman Asian province with an abundance of fine public constructions. During the Byzantian era the city has fallen into decay in connection with disappearance of a cult of Artemis, the Arab attacks and (that is most awful) a final silting of port that has forced local population of Turkey to get over on the next mountain where now there is a tomb and St. John Evangelista's church, Selchuk's kernel. Dolmusha from Kushadasa land tourists in Turkey at Tusan motel at an intersection in 1 km from gate. From Selchuk the 3-kilometre road here conducts.
Richness of ancient temples in Turkey in the Hilt
Through the centre of the small town passes the Arcadian way, there is no time built up with hundred parts of benches and shined at the nights. The adjoining theatre partly is restored, in it arrange concerts and summer festivals open-air. Ordered rounds in Turkey it is necessary to rise by a top of a hillock and to admire a panorama of circles. Mramornaya Street conducts by the main agora and the temple in Turkey Serapis to whom Egyptian dealers worshipped. Approximately halfway the petroglyphic symbol in the form of the female head and heart (consider that is a sign of the public house in Turkey) is placed. Houses of the taken place city dwellers were stuck to a slope of a terrasny hillock. Behind an intersection the library Tselsa erected by consul Guy Julius Akvila in 110-135 AD in memory of his father Tselsa Polemona rises. Her magnificent two-story facade has niches for the statues personifying 4 virtues (originals are in Vienna, and copies here are exposed). Higher on the mountain on Kuretov Street, near a public lavatory there is the Byzantian fountain. Further, behind the term of the Scholasticism, named so because of the female sculpture of the Byzantian era deprived by the head (V century) at an entrance, is Adrian's temple. On the far party of the street the big mosaic has remained, there is no time decorating benches. Further down the street Kuretov it is possible to pass passing Domitsian's temple in which ground floor the inquisitive museum of inscriptions, to a big top agora with a northern colonnade and the restored civilian constructions is located.
Absolutely study ruins of the Hilt the ordered rounds to Turkey from Ufa can.
