Asklepion is known as a sort of health and spa area for Greeks and Romans who were tired of perching at the nearby hilltop of Pergamon in Turkey. Come for the baths, the massages, the entertainment.
The grand boulevard to the complex. Pergamon is in the distance, up the hill.
Shaking things up a little in the column world, a little red sandstone. Frieze as propped prop.
To the baths. The complex is circular, partially still covered and in tact. Nice grotto double barrel interior vaults.
Everyone always wants to know where ancient civilizations went to the bathroom. OK, maybe just certain people. Everyone poops, right? Well, right there!
