The WESTERN part of TURKEY is a unique land with rich geography and long history. This is the area along the Aegean Sea and the westernmost coastline of the Turkish Mediterranean Sea, as well as the subtropical zone deeper in the mainland of the westernmost part of Minor Asia (not the whole western half of Turkey, but only the narrow strip of of land in the westernpost part of the country). Here you can find a lot of pristine beaches, ancient cities, modern resorts, mountains, and other natural formations. You can dive in the ancient past and in the modern culture of Turkey

So, we present a series of videos from our 15 days trip around the Western Turkey, starting from Bulgaria, entering Turkey through its European part in the Balkans and crossing into Minor Asia. Then, we visit some of the most famous and significant destinations like the ancient ruins of the Seven Churches of Revelation, some other interesting ancient ruins, the best modern cities and resorts, the best beaches and some of the most amazing natural attractions.

In this video Part 13, we reach the area of Denizli where three important ancient cities are located- Colossae, Laodicea, and Hierapolis. We will explore Colosae and Laodicea. Colossae is the city of the church of Colossians, to whom the Epistle to Colossians in the Bible was written. And Laodicea is the city of the church of Laodicea- the seventh of the Seven Churches of Asia, whose message is written in the Book of Revelation (Apocalypse).
