*** A famous quote by Benoit Paul Denis Joseph Marie Yves Hanquet

| A functioning Roman fountain |

| Ancient city of Sagalassos |
On our last day of the trip we just had enough time in the
morning to visit the ancient city of Sagalassos. It’s a Greco-Roman city (even
though the history of it dates much further back, the remains found are from
that era). There’s a successful
restoration project in progress, and it already has become a site well worth a
visit. There’s also the only functional Roman fountain found in the country on
this site. After erecting up the ancient fountain, archaeologist were able to
supply it with water coming from the same natural spring that had fed it 2000
years ago. There was another chance not to be missed, so drinking water from an
ancient Roman fountain became the highlight of the day. After visiting the site we hit the road to
the airport to conclude a trip spent in a beautiful enviroment surrounded by
beautiful people.
