Now that we are all settled in and comfy in our new home we decided to explore a bit. Taking a cue from the excellent information book provided by Val and Tom, our hosts, we decide to travel north to some interesting ruins. I am just astounded at the ruins in the area. Every turn offers new ancient ruins from Greek and Roman times. We walk over these ancient stone creations thinking about the engineering and labor that went into constructing the walls, theaters, homes. Just amazing! First we visited Tlos, and ancient city estimated to be at least 4000 years old. We saw many sarcophogi and house tombs carved into the hillsides. Of course there was a very intact theater, and also an acropolis, bath house, wall, temple, and a church from later times.
