| Laodecia was not on the list of sites initially. I just happened to find a reference to it's proximity to Pamukkale/Hieropolis. Finding it was made all the more difficult by the lack of highway signage perhaps due to road construction in the area. I was grateful when we got there. In Alberta, our cities are built beside rivers, in Turkey, cities are built on hillsides and have amazing views. |
You should really check out Nicole's post about Laodicea. Her pictures are better than mine. http://nicolesnittygrittypixiedust.blogspot.com.tr/2014/04/laodicea-and-lizards.html

| Lots of reconstruction in the area. Manpower has been replaced by machine power. |

| The white stretch on the right is Pamukkale in the distance. |
 |
| Some of the places being renovated are under cover. A glimpse inside shows very beautiful mosaics, but the worker wouldn't let me take any photos. |
