We started our day with a visit to what was once a fortified city: Alinda
Remains of the aquaduct
We saw many sarcophgi on our walk i Alinda. Some of the town wall is in the background.
The weather was a little rainy that morning. Look at the quality of the arch.
Nature has gradually overtaken the ancient city.
Looking down on some of the city and the farmland below.
There was a herd of horses grazing in the city.
There must have been a lot of work to build the walls up and down the hills.
the small town of Karpuzlu
Wehad already learned that the sarcophagi we saw would have been outside the city proper.
Springtime vegetation.
We were able to climb up on walls and look around.
Still square after 2,000 years
We came across some men tending to olive trees in the traditional manner.
Cows ate the debris from the trimming.
