Nose bleed seats at the Aspendos Theater.

Aspendos Theatre is a remarkable ancient Roman theater in the city of Aspendos, Turkey. Constructed in the 2nd century AD during the reign of Marcus Aurelius, it is considered one of the most well-preserved examples of Roman theaters in the world.

Aside from being a venue for theatrical performances, this historical site also served as a meeting place for local government officials and as a location for public announcements. But what’s truly remarkable about Aspendos Theatre is its outstanding acoustics, which are so precise that even a mere whisper from the stage can be heard from the farthest seats at the top. Today, the theater continues to be used for live performances and cultural events, including the annual Antalya International Opera and Ballet Festival.

Mesmerized by the eternal flames of Azerbaijan’s

Mesmerized by the eternal flames of Azerbaijan’s Yanar Dag - the Fire Mountain 🔥🌋 For centuries, this natural wonder has captured the imagination of locals and visitors alike, and it’s easy to see why! 🔥✨ #YanarDag #FireMountain #Azerbaijan #Nature #Travel #EternalFlames
*
*
Yanar Dag, also known as the Fire Mountain, is a natural gas fire located on a hillside in the Absheron Peninsula of Azerbaijan. The natural gas seeps through the ground and ignites due to a combination of heat, pressure, and oxygen in the air. The flames from the Fire Mountain can reach up to three meters in height and have been burning continuously for centuries.
*
*
Yanar Dag has been a part of Azerbaijani culture and mythology for centuries. According to local legend, a shepherd once accidentally ignited the gas while lighting a fire, leading to the discovery of the natural phenomenon. The Fire Mountain has since been considered a sacred place and a symbol of Azerbaijan’s natural beauty.
*
*
Today, Yanar Dag is a popular tourist attraction in Azerbaijan, and visitors can witness the eternal flames up close. The site is especially stunning at night when the flames light up the surrounding area, creating a surreal and unforgettable experience.
