What Made Aspendos the Richest City in Ancient Times?

Описание: The sights of Aspendos, near Antalya, are among the best things to see in Turkey. Aspendos' golden age saw it become one of the wealthiest cities in the Classical World, trading with all the great powers of the day. Although Aspendos' neutrality was finally trampled by an act or treachery, the remains of the mighty city still stand, and have been a tourist site since Ottoman times. Easily reached from Antalya or Alanya, and with several other ruined cities nearby, Aspendos makes a great day trip. Just ask Guy Richie.
