The Red Basilica

Day 3- Continued - On the sides of the Red Basilica are two Towers built at a different time. One on the left houses a Muslim Mosque. The one on the right is being restored to display the artifacts from the Red Basilica.

A page out of Revelations 2: 12-17 To the Church of Pergamon. John warns the Christians at this church in Pergamon the Red Basilica.

Paul also passed this way after the riot he caused in Ephesus. It is amazing.
Nearly 75% of Turkey is Muslim & not any sign of Christianity anywhere today.


Looking through one of the old windows of the Basilica you can see the Acropolis.

Perched above the old Greek part of Pergamon is the Acropylus, and our wonderful trek.
