Running the whole gamut must be quite an exciting experience; from the ruins of Old Turkey to this hybrid marvel that has made light-hearted a rich past and infusing it with the modern is something I have never seen done before.
I was particularly struck by the night images. To see the place lit up under the Mediterranean sky gave me some ideas of where I should go when I get to Turkey. The Roman paintings were wonderful also, and I must say your descriptions and the pictures complement each other. The people who came up with this idea were really thinking outside of the box. Hats off to them, and to you too for bringing us back to Turkey for a completely different view of that majestic place.
Much of what we get about many places tend to be so lop-sided and one dimensional. That you have taken the time to show us the many faces of so many places speaks to the wonder of this blog, and to your great efforts as a travel writer.
By the way, how much candy did you have? Haha.
As always, a great read.
Nicholas, thank you for this nice value adding comment. It's true, Turkey has such a heritage that even without this resort, there would be more than enough reason to visit it's historically significant lands. On the other hand, too much of a one trick pony can wear you out and I was glad that this stop was in the middle of my travels in Turkey, before venturing to another historical place. It was a really good balancing act and breather before more 'serious' travels.
In it's own right though, I was very impressed that such a place could be established there, and I have high hopes that others will follow suit.
(I didn't have dinner as a result of eating too much candy :P)
Thanks again Nicholas!
