History Butterfly Belly-Türkiye 3️⃣

#Troy is the most anticipated place in my trip to Türkiye. It allows me to live in the fantasy of history, legend and reality since childhood. I started writing the third article "The Belly of the Historical Butterfly - Türkiye". Why did I change the name? The reason is Türkiye It occupies an important geographical location connecting Europe and Asia, and is also the only city spanning Europe and Asia. The European and Asian plates are separated by the #Bosporus Strait (#İstanbul Boğazı), just like the wings of a butterfly, and this place where Eastern and Western cultures merge, let me call it the belly of the butterfly! ##Troy, located in northwestern Turkey, is an important city in ancient Greek mythology and is famous for being mentioned in Homer's epics Iliad and Odyssey. Let us explore this ancient site today and savor the mysterious legend. The ruins of the ancient city of Troy are divided into nine levels, each level represents a city in a different period. The most well-known of these is the Trojan Six, the Troy of the Iliad. The most famous check-in point in the site is the Trojan Horse, a huge wooden statue based on the story in Homer's epic. It is said that the ancient Greeks used this wooden horse trick to break into the city of Troy and end the Trojan War. In addition to the Trojan horse, there are many other ancient buildings worth seeing in the Troy ruins, such as magnificent city walls, temples, theaters, etc. With the detailed explanation of the tour guide, we seemed to travel through time and space and returned to the distant ancient Greece.
