 The two thousand year old ancient city Afrodisias' story is as impressive as the myths.
Famous Turkish photographer Ara Guler who traveled to Denizli,
a southwestern Turkish city, in 1958 lost his way while returning to
Izmir via Aydin and decided to spend the night at the first village he
came across along the road.
he only lights that were on in the village late at night were at
Geyre's café. That small café with its walls surrounded by sculptures
and marble tables decorated with handmade embroideries made the artist
forget his exhaustion. Guler asks: "Where is this place? How did these
stones come here?" The owner of the café says, "There are plenty of
them here." Guler was stunned by the response and impatiently waited
for daybreak.
