A little more on Bergama

Bergama was very nice, I saw a lot of sites and played a lot of chess. There are three main sites in Bergama. The Acropolis, the Asklepion (an ancient medical complex / “day spa”), and the Red Basilica, which as originally built as a temple for Serapis (an Egyptian God / Hellenistic god), but was later a church and a mosque. So here are some more pictures, along with captions for the images a already posted. My final thought on Bergama, should have brought better shoes.

Marble columns are so classic, here is a close up.
