This city was once one of the most beautiful and developed in Asia Minor.
Temples, theaters, fountains, philosophy, and life—high in the mountains.

Today it stands silent.

In this episode of "Turkish Express," we travel to Sagalassos—an ancient Greek city that experienced prosperity, catastrophes, and complete oblivion.
History, culture, nature, and the inevitable decline of a great civilization.

Why did Sagalassos disappear?
And what remained—besides stones?

▶️ Watch to the end—this story is more powerful than it seems at first glance.
