AN EXPLORATION OF MYTHICAL LANDS | From Jason and the Argonauts to Noah’s ark, the Black Sea is the scene of many of ancient history’s great legends. On this fascinating journey through time, each moment is an opportunity to create legends of your own. Thought to be the mythological city of Tomis, Constanta was both home and muse to the Roman poet Ovid. The Caucasian State Nature Reserve in Sochi protects several Nordmann firs that are nearly 280 feet in height and purported to be the tallest trees in Europe. Later exiled, the Greek philosopher Diogenes is believed to have been born in Sinop, where today you can visit the archaeological museum, mosque, castle and fortress that tell the stories of this city’s thousands of years of history. · The 12th century Church of St. Stephen in Nessebur is a remarkably well preserved medieval church and a highlight of any visit to this quaint Bulgarian town · With long tree-lined avenues, elegant buildings and a cosmopolitan social scene, Bucharest near Constanta was once considered the “Paris of the East” · The Massandra Winery near Yalta boasts one of the largest wine collections in the world with more than one million bottles of wine from all over the globe · Didyma, an ancient sanctuary near Kusadasi, is the legendary birthplace of Apollo and the site of the Temple of Apollo
The vast sweep of history is the focus of this landmark voyage from the Catalan culture of lively Barcelona to the contrasts of sleek, modern Dubai. Ruins of the Roman Empire are scattered throughout the Eternal City's Seven Hills and can also be discovered in the relics of Ephesus and the poignant ashes of Pompeii. Ancient Greece announces its presence in Rhodes, which has been inhabited for 6,000 years, and Egypt's place in world history shines brightly in Luxor's brilliant Valley of the Kings. Jerusalem cradles the heart of three religions, as reflected in the Dome of the Rock, while the sultans of Oman likewise speak of an impossibly rich past
The Roman Empire once sprawled across Europe, and its historic tales have influenced every country on the modern continent. Romanesque art is showcased in Barcelona's National Museum of Art of Catalonia. The majestic Parthenon of Athens survived in tact for hundreds of years despite the conquest of Romans and other conquerors. Captivating Capri has been a resort area since Roman times. The magnificent ruins of Ephesus tell the story of both Greek and Roman citizens who once ruled there, while Santorini is linked to the legend of the lost city of Atlantis. Of course, this voyage would not be complete without visiting magnificent Rome itself.
A JOURNEY THROUGH THE CRADLE OF CIVILIZATION | The significant shift from a nomadic way of life to civilizations based on agriculture and urban settlements gave rise to mighty empires that expanded across the globe. Trace the origins of these ancient civilizations, their sacred lands and the impact they had on world history. In Istanbul a trip to the Spice Market, built in 1664, offers a look at the enduring legacy of trade and commerce at this important crossroad. The excavated remains of the 4th century BC Doric temple of Athena Lindia on Rhodes are emblematic of the power of ancient myth in this region. The reach of the Roman Empire can be found as far as Alexandria, where Pompey’s Pillar stands as one of the largest monolithic columns ever erected. · Named for the blue tiles that decorate its interior walls, the majestic Blue Mosque in Istanbul is considered one of the last great mosques of the Classical period · Built thousands of years ago, the Great Theater of Ephesus has such excellent acoustics that it has even been used for modern-day concerts · The main port for crusaders in the 12th century, the city of Acre on Haifa Bay has a history dating back 4,000 years · Built in 330 AD, the Church of the Nativity in Bethlehem near Jerusalem is the oldest church in the Holy Land still in use today
The path between Venice and Istanbul explores lands ruled by the Byzantine Empire and overtaken by many other world powers before and since. Explore the Doge's Palace in incomparable Venice, the 2nd century Library of Celsus in awe-inspiring Ephesus and the ancient stone windmills of captivating Crete. Marvel at Fort Lovrijenac in the walled city of Dubrovnik, soak in the remarkable history of Rhodes and peer into the soul of Montenegro through the eyes of coastal Kotor. Iconic historical sites are not the only appeal of this itinerary. Tour a winery in Umbria, sip some ouzo in serene Santorini, and enjoy a gyro as you relax on the beaches of sun-splashed Corfu.
