Biblical Tour From Pamukkale (Private)

It was believed that the proximity of the hot springs and vapor-emitting cracks would ease their journey into the Underworld. The Hierapolis City Bath, the springs of Hierapolis, was particularly popular among vacationing Romans. You will notice that carved into the side of the mountain is the monstrous Grand Theater that dominates the vista of Hierapolis.

It features a vast network of decorative elements from the 3rd century CE, including ornately sculptured statues, columns, and arches, amongst other elements. At its height, the Grand Theatre could host 25.000 boisterous fans and is still largely intact until this day. After the local lunch, we will drive to Laodicea. It will take about 10 minutes.

Excavations and restorations have been ongoing in the ancient city since 2003. Some 4,000 artifacts have been uncovered so far.
