Afrodisias is located approx 90kms from Pamukkale and is one of the oldest sacred sites in Turkey. Dedicated to the ancient Mother Goddess and then the Greek goddess Aphrodite, it was the site of a magnificent Temple of Aphrodite and the home of a renowned school of marble sculpture.
The tour bus picked up me and my new friend Diana from Australia from the hotel at 10:00 am and returned to Pamukkale approx 4 pm. The sites a has most preserved structures and statutes than all the sites I visited in Greece added together. The museum has an amazing collections of beautiful sculptures that we did not have time to read stories behind them. Wish I had more time for it.
