Ancient City of Troy

January 22
We went to Istanbul to see ancient Troy. Guided tours are provided only in English, but don't be afraid if you speak it very poorly or don't know it at all. My main concern was that we would not be lost, because the path is not close.
It takes 4 hours by bus first, and then by ferry across the Dardanelles Strait. But everything was great, so I recommend it to everyone. The guide is a very nice Turkish girl who doesn't know Russian at all, a bunch of Americans are with us, and here we are in Three. Of course, I had to involuntarily strain myself and listen to an English course from ancient history. But they didn't lose us anywhere, they wrote in the translator where we would meet and when. The food was delicious, and the path itself is beautiful and picturesque. And at the ruins of Troy you will be given an audio guide in Russian and you can walk perfectly without a guide. Therefore, do not be afraid of anything, you will really enjoy a wonderful trip for the whole day. I advise all history lovers.
The cost in November 2024 was 130 euros per person.

This place has been well improved, paths have been laid. It is convenient to visit even with a stroller or heels (we have seen such ladies)
Squirrels are running all over the area, which is very cute.
But it wasn't informative enough. Not even an audio guide.

A convenient route along the platforms, there are benches and viewing platforms. Parking in front of the entrance is paid, but cheap. The entrance ticket is 30 euros (2024).

It's beautiful, interesting and informative. A piece of centuries-old history. Definitely worth a visit!

The Troy ticket is 26 €, there are 5 of us, three children, for a total of 130 €! The sun burns mercilessly! Kids, who wants ice cream and a swim?!
The choice is obvious 🌟 Let's go, just around the corner, the remains of the "Artifacts" that did not enter the Trophy were photographed... Then we drive through the fields to the sea, and there is a SHOCK - ZABROSHKA beach! Just the sea, umbrellas, sun beds and not the souls, It's CREEPY! Zombies are coming! 🤣
We went swimming, got drunk, and went to a nearby village for ice cream.

The ruins of the ancient city are located near the town of Canakkale, 30 minutes by car. The cost of a ticket to visit the ruins and the museum (in the complex) for guests without a Turkish ID = 27 euros per person (August 2024). The museum is 4-storeyed, artifacts from different countries are collected. There are interactive stands, it will be interesting for both adults and children. I recommend.

It was very cool, cool, and we didn't regret going at all. The route from Istanbul is long, about 5 hours, then the same amount back, but it's worth it. We learned a lot of interesting things

It's not about beauty, it's about a harsh epic. Heroic ruins in layers and information stands (you can't figure them out without them), wooden walkways (you can't get off it), oak trees, olive trees and squirrels. If you are not familiar with the Iliad, it will be boring. If you are familiar, there will be no Parking - 40 liras. Of course, there are plenty of dogs.

The entrance fee is 27 Euros and it's not worth it, instead of the Horse from the movie there is a Lacquered grandmother's closet with an entrance to it by horse genitals. The ruins themselves can be traversed in 5 minutes - nothing remarkable - IN GENERAL, any free ruins look more beautiful. The real Horse from the movie stands on the embankment in the city of Canakkale.

I've been dreaming about this place ever since I read The Iliad, Homer's Odyssey and Irving Stone's Greek Treasures. It was really amazing. Don't expect too much, the place has been hidden underground for about 1000 years. But it's great that you can see it now. The horse was under reconstruction, but better look at the one that was left after the shooting of the film Troy in Canakkale, it looks more like the original than the one here. There are a lot of squirrels running around the ruins, five squirrels out of five.

It is a historically famous place, but for obvious reasons, little has been preserved from the city as such.

Expectations are completely out of line with reality. If it were not for the realization that you are walking through the ruins of the famous Troy, then these are just excavations and piles of stones, of which there are a huge number on the territory of modern Turkey, and believe me, the vast majority of which are much more interesting to visit. In order not to be unfounded, I will give examples - Ephesus, Sagalassos, Mira, Patara). Plus, the figure of the Toryan horse itself was completely covered with scaffolding, so even a photo with a horse could not be taken...

Ruins, like ruins. Overrated. 50,000 Greeks could take him in a circle for 2 times. The most valuable thing in the museum. At least you can look at Ephesus on the spot.

There are no solid buildings left, only ruins. Squirrels are running around the park. If you want to buy something in the park, I do not advise it. Expensive. It is better to walk 400 meters, and take souvenirs at the counters at a more adequate price. Fortunately, there is a huge choice there

The excavation area is very small compared to Ephesus or Pergamon, you can get around in an hour. A free audio guide is announced at the checkout, but in fact it is not available

The territory of the museum is quite small, the exposition is, let's say, small. By the way, the horse was also unlucky, it was under reconstruction)

The horse is disassembled and under repair. The ruins are so ruined that your imagination should work very well. The place will be interesting only to those who are very immersed in the history of Troy.
I do not recommend it.

The city itself has not been preserved much. And many things seem far-fetched and far-fetched! But the museum is very cool and modern

Some kind of far-fetched ruins, more like merchants' houses than an ancient city. But the museum is cool, it's worth a visit.

Welcome to the Construction of uneven cubes on the banks of the Great Schliemann Trench. The surname Schliemann can be translated from German as a Bad Guy, by the way. Take some water and hold on to your panama hats)

The legendary Troy! It is a very beautiful and atmospheric place. And there is also the opportunity to climb in and take a picture in a Trojan horse (a giant wooden mock-up is installed at the very beginning of the park)
