TROY

The ancient city of Troy is located within the borders of the Çanakkale district in Turkey. Renowned for its significant role in the Trojan War, as depicted by Homer in the epic "Iliad," this city is the backdrop for legendary characters like Achilles, Hector, Ajax, Agamemnon, and Paris. Beyond its mythological significance, Troy carries a rich narrative that spans over 5000 years of human history.

Throughout its existence, the city has seen domination by various powers, including the Persians, Alexander the Great, the Seleucids, the Kingdom of Pergamon, and the Romans. This continuous lineage of historical occupation highlights Troy's strategic and cultural importance through the ages. Such value has been internationally recognized, with the ancient city of Troy being designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1998.

Additionally, notable nearby landmarks often mentioned in the context of the Trojan Wars, such as Mount Ida, the Dardanelles Strait (formerly known as the Hellespont), are also situated in Çanakkale. Each of these sites contributes to the historical and cultural tapestry anchored within this region.
