troy
		This is the famous day that we ventured to Troy! After being viewed as too much off the beaten track, Troy was back online. This was much to the disaproval of our driver Alp!
Here lies the once mighty city of Trois, where many an Iliadic event happened! Today archaeologists have found ten cities, possibly more. Homer's Troy is thought to be number six or number seven. more >

looking closer at the rocks...
		Alp, you must agree that these rocks are fabulous. The rest of us definately agreed that Troy was well worth the visit!
Here is a good view to show that the archaeologists aren't fibbin when they say Troy is multilevelled. You can see Troy I, II, III and IV..  < back | more >

Well here are the mighty walls themselves in 1999. They think the top ones are from 'Homer's' Troy. What do you think?   < back | more >

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

and finally...
		We almost broke our necks to get this shot of the sign post!   Reversing down a main road in Turkey is not the best idea!
5km from Trois. Next stop today would be Assos, serveral hundred kilometres up the road!  < back | top --^
