Turkey 3

This was a BEAUTIFUL place that my camera just doesn't do justice. But this is taken from Assos with the Island of Lesbos in the background. We had a devotional on the top of this peak right next to a ruin temple.

The stadium at Pergamum which fit 24,000 people when it was in use back in New Testament times

Cool arch walkway in Pergamum

Temple of Zeus, also known as Satan's Seat from Revelations 2

Library from Ephesus

Open up your quad and look at the pictures and find Ephesus. That is this is the exact spot that was taken at. So I'm holding up my scriptures with that picture.

This is the only thing that has remained from the Temple of Artemis in Ephesus. It was a HUGE structure in the era it was standing that people would come from all around to see. It was like the Titanic of the time. People never imagined it would ever be destroyed and now all that's left is one lousy pillar.

Turkey again

In front of the Blue Mosque (the biggest mosque outside of Mecca)

Basilica Cistern (one of my favorite places we went to in Turkey)

View of the Bosphorus strait from the Topkapi Palace (SO COOL)

The boat ride on the Bosphorus (This was SOOOOO FUNNNNN!)

ANZAC, Gallipoli

Troy
