    Embarking on the tour of the historical landmarks of the city was like stepping back in time

    Starting at the South Gate, I marvelled at the ancient walls of the Temple of Zeus, standing as silent witnesses to centuries of history. As we reached the forum, the grandeur of the temple and the south theatre took my breath away. Walking down the main street, Cardo, felt like a journey through a bustling marketplace of antiquity, with the Cathedral, Nymphaeum, and shops lining the path. Climbing up to the Temple of Artemis, I was rewarded with a stunning view of the Corinthian Column, a testament to the city's architectural brilliance. This tour was a captivating exploration of the city's rich heritage and a reminder of the enduring legacy of ancient civilizations.
