一整晚都在下雨,风也很大。
早上吃早餐时,听到有人投诉昨晚很吵,一直有敲门声,但我什么没听见,因为我睡得很沉。老婆却说昨晚有听见“嘭”一声大声的,这么灵异?!老婆没理它,当作是外面风吹到玻璃门的声音,照睡。
今天的早餐真的是一天不如一天,领队的桌子摆满了杯面任你选择,如果没有cereal和面包,我看我也要吃杯面了。

***6点多,天就已经亮了。还是吹大风,还夹着小雨。
吃完早餐后,Atilla带我们去皮革工厂,因为Turkey的皮革有名嘛。皮革工厂让我们看了一场皮革时装表演,展示工厂当下最流行的款式。
价钱有点贵哦。工厂只标数字而已,价钱是算美金的。随便一件也要上千零吉。价钱有点乱乱开的感觉,标价900,可以减到450,是里拉,是美金还是欧元,任他们说的。
有个小插曲,原来马来西亚的翻版DVD卖到Turkey来,而且还卖到不错的价钱,算得上是翻版DVD的“名牌”。Atilla也是“粉丝”之一。都不知道该开心还是悲哀好?




看完了表演后,我们就前往Ephesus古城,一个蛮美的古城。很多景点可以拍照。Ephesus就在House of Virgin Mary的山脚下。昨天就经过了Ephesus的入口。
*EPHESUS - (Ancient Greek Ἔφεσος; Turkish Efes) was an ancient Greek city on the west coast of Anatolia, in the region known as Ionia during the period known as Classical Greece. It was one of the twelve cities of the Ionian League. The best preserved of the world ancient classical ruins and the most visited ruin site from the period of St. Paul. See the Seven Churches of Revelation, the Temple of Artemis (one of the Seven Wonders of Antic World).


这里的动物都很有性格,很高傲,任你怎样逗它,它都不喜欢鸟你,可能它们只会听Turkish而已。
















*Celsus Library - Built for Tiberius Julius Celsus Polemaeanus and completed in AD 135 in Ephesus, Asia Minor (Anatolia) (now Turkey). Celsus’ son, Gaius Julius Aquila (consul AD 110), built the library in honor of his father who was consul in AD 92, governor of Asia in AD 115, and a wealthy and popular local citizen. The library was built to store 12,000 scrolls and to serve as a monumental tomb for Celsus. It was unusual to be buried within a library or even within city limits, so this was a special honor for Celsus.

***Ancient sign board. We have 2 versions here. According to Sibel's version, Ephesus was a city facing Aegean Sea, so sailors came often. Normally what a sailor need the most after long journey was women. So there is woman's head, a left foot print, a broken heart, a square. According to Sibel, follow the left foot print, sailor can find a woman with broken heart awaiting for him to heal her. And lastly the square means credit card is acceptable. Walau, good story teller, right? LOL. But according to Atilla, he said that this was a guide to the Temple of Artemis.



很喜欢Ephesus这个古迹,今天参观的只是古迹的20%,还有80%等待被挖出来让世人更加了解Ephesus这个古城。希望下次有机会再来,能看到更多的古迹。
今天的午餐的蛮不错的,烤鸡胸。清清淡淡的,因为没下什么调味料,味道蛮不错的。因为没有调味,所以就出动了领队带来的“私家”辣椒酱。




*Pamukkale - meaning "cotton castle" in Turkish, is a natural site and attraction in south-western Turkey in the Denizli Province. Pamukkale is located in Turkey's Inner Aegean region, in the River Menderes valley, which enjoys a temperate climate over the greater part of the year. The ancient city of Hierapolis was built on top of the white "castle" which is in total about 2700 meters long and 160m high. It can be seen from the hills on the opposite side of the valley in the town of Denizli, 20 km away.

*Hierapolis - (Greek: Ἱεράπολις 'holy city') was the ancient city on top of the famous Pamukkale hot springs located in south-western Turkey near Denizli. There are only a few historical facts known about the origin of the city. No traces of the presence of Hittites or Persians have yet been found.
Hierapolis was founded as a thermal spa early in the second century BC and given by the Romans to Eumenes II, king of Pergamon in 190 BC. The city was named after the name of the existing temple, or possibly to honour Hiera, wife of Telephos — son of Heracles by a Mysian princess Auge - the mythical founder of the Attalid dynasty. The city was expanded with proceeds from the booty from the Battle of Magnesia in 190 BC, where Antiochus the Great was defeated by Eumenes II who had sided with the Romans. Thus Hierapolis became part of the Pergamon kingdom.

导游说我们来迟了十年。十年前的Pamukkale很美,山上都是泡温泉的水池。现在已经很少水了,只剩下一条温泉小沟,可惜。









由于时间不足,所以没有参观到Hierapolis古迹,是一个遗憾。希望下次有机会再来。
今晚的酒店是温泉酒店,Polat Thermal Resort,也是五星级。看了房间,连两星都不如。厕板掉下来,花洒好象散弹枪一样,冲完个凉,整个厕所好像下雨一样。
晚餐前还有点时间,去泡温泉。这里的温泉属于硫磺泉。由于是户外的,风吹来时很冷,泡在温泉里有很暖。
今天的晚餐是旅程里最烂的,最多人吃杯面的,酒店是最烂的,还满多“最”的。我们原本的酒店不是Polat Thermal Resort,而是Colossae Hotel,不知道为什么会临时换了酒店,Colossae Hotel应该会比Polat Thermal Resort好。
酒店很烂,房间很烂,没心情说晚安。
