There is so much rich history there that is, as you point out, off the beaten path of the typical tourist. Very cool!Rev.

Inspring story indeed. If you ever get the chance, Turkey's a wonderful place to go. John, Paul, and Peter were there, and perhaps Mary was in Ephesus. We even visited John's tomb . . . which had absolutely no guards, no crowds, no nothing. We saw the rock churches of the Cappadocian Fathers, as well as Hagia Sophia, which is now a museum.Peterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14234917506356126494noreply@blogger.com
