Pergamon Acropolis: Known for the Zeus Altar, whose ruins can still be seen today, the Acropolis is perched high above the plain, offering a unique panoramic view. The narrow and steep theater on the hillside could seat up to 10,000 people. Pergamon was also where parchment paper was first produced. During the visit, you will explore the remains of the Great Library, which once rivaled the famous Library of Alexandria in Egypt, the palaces of the kings, and the Temple of Trajan. Next, you will enjoy a lunch break at a local restaurant, where you can taste traditional Turkish cuisine and relax before continuing the tour.
