To say that Turkey or Turkiye is rich in history is very much the understatement of the century. The country is home to a number of attractions that can easily transport visitors back to the past and give a glimpse of how life was back then.
In fact, Turkey is actually home to ancient cities, and three of which are found in the city of Denizli. Located in southwestern Turkey, Denizli is home to three ancient cities that have much to offer any curious, history-loving wandered.
Hierapolis Ancient City
The third and last ancient city located in Denizli is the Tripolis Ancient City. Previously called Apollonia, this city was also known as Antionopolis before its name was changed to Tripolis.
This city, which used to be one of the richest in the region, was heavily destroyed by earthquakes and wars through the years. What is left of Tripolis, including a theater, a stadium, and a bath, can still be visited by travelers today and is considered an important archaeological site.
