Temple of Trajan, Ancient Greek temple ruins in Bergama, Turkey

The Temple of Trajan stands on a high marble podium at the summit of Pergamon's acropolis, featuring classical columns and architectural elements.

Emperor Hadrian completed the construction of this temple in the 2nd century AD, which was initially started during Emperor Trajan's reign.

The temple served as the fourth imperial cult structure in Asia Minor, where both emperors Trajan and Zeus received religious veneration.

Visitors can explore the temple ruins daily from 8:30 AM to 6:30 PM, with entrance tickets available for 25 Turkish Lira.

Engineers created an intricate system of parallel walls and barrel vaults to support the temple's foundation on the steep acropolis terrain.
