Aspendos, Turkey - The Theatre
Aspendos, Turkey - The fabulous theatre, prior to extensive restoration in the past 50 years. Aspendos was an ancient Greco-Roman city in the Antalya province of Turkey. The theatre was built in 155 by the Greek architect Zenon, a native of the city, during the rule of Marcus Aurelius. It was periodically repaired by the Seljuks who used it as a caravansaray and in the 13th century, the stage building was converted into a palace by Seljuks of Rum. Until recently the theatre was still in use for concerts, festivals and events. Due to some damage caused by fitting modern theatrical equipment during these events the Turkish authorities have suspended further shows
