Pergamon

Ruins from the temple of Dionysus.  I must say, we have seen a lot of ruins, but Pergamon are at the top of my favorites list.

Alina at the top of the Theater.

McKayla also at the top, you can see how steep this theater is.

You had to go through this great tunnel to get to the theater.

We were surprised that most of the places we went you could climb on the ruins.

The temple dedicated to Emperor Trajan.

This is the gallery at the lower part of the temple.  There were several arches in a row with rooms in between each arch.

Coming out the other side of the arches.

We road the gondola, or sky bucket as Alina called it, up to the acropolis.

It's funny how you can go see these amazing sights and when you ask the kids what their favorite part was they will tell you the "sky bucket" ride.

Once you get up to the ruins you understand why they built the city where they did.  The view was amazing.
