Aspendos, Archaeological site in Serik, Turkey
The theater at Aspendos contains a semicircular seating area divided into two sections by a horizontal walkway and features a stage building reaching 30 meters high.
The Greeks from Argos established Aspendos around 1000 BCE, transforming it into a major trading center for salt, oil, and wool in ancient Pamphylia.
The Roman theater of Aspendos maintains exceptional acoustic properties that allow performances to continue today, accommodating up to 15,000 spectators during events.
The archaeological site opens daily from 8:30 AM to 7:00 PM during summer months, with guided tours available in multiple languages at the entrance.
The aqueduct system of Aspendos utilized inverted siphons with stone pipes to transport water across valleys, demonstrating advanced Roman engineering techniques.
