RE: Travel with me #86 : A visit to the ancient Town of Hiera - Hierapolis!
@sweetsssj - Amazing views of Hierapolis. I love ancient ruins and had visited some near Ankara like Roman baths but have missed Hierapolis. Well - will visit next time. As usual, you look stunning in a yellow dress and viewing your photos in the ruins is like seeing a glorious sunflower!
The necropolis is a bit creepy because of all the graves but your observation of the size of the tomb marking the importance of a person is spot on. In modern day too, this is observed in many places but was much more prominent in that era.
Arches are always interesting in any ruins. The double arches make very good impressions in your pictures. I also loved the domed structure of the basilica baths. The baths seem to be roman legacy in Turkey in general.
LOL- if you had not mentioned, we would not have known that you wandered through sewage of a public toilet of Hierapolis!
This blog from you came after 7-8 days so I was impatiently waiting for more glimpses of Turkey. Thanks for this because I got to see something I had missed.
You must be quite busy with visiting another interesting spot now. I request you to visit my latest 3 blogs when you have time - they may interest you since they have some interesting aspects (funny as well as serious) aspects of wildlife awareness. Your comments and feedback will help enrich my Steemit experience. Thanks
Regards,
As always, great post and thank you for sharing your travel experiences with us.

vm2904, i've missed you and your comments very much! Thank you for going through my post with so much detail. I haven't actually been travelling elsewhere, just a lot of life commitments have made it difficult to do any posting! I'll definitely drop by your blog and leave some comments :)
@sweetsssj - Thank you dear friend. Since I am busy with my fathers health issues, it is difficult to post and also to see your posts and comment in time. The time difference also makes it difficult. I am glad I could see your blog when I got online today and you could see my comment. I appreciate your visits to my blogs. Thanks friend. Your appreciation makes Steemit a better place for me.
vm2904, my condolences to your father and I wish him a swift recovery, do make sure you spend more than ample time with your father, it is important to care for your family as they have cared for you. As always, I always appreciate your support. Of course, I always browse through your blogs when I find the chance! :)
