Perga, seen from the acropolis, with intersection of the colonnaded streets, an ancient Pamphylian city ruled by the Persians, Greeks and Romans, in Antalya, Turkey. Perga has 2 main streets intersecting to divide the city into 4. The main street is 480m long and 22m wide and was used by pedestrians and vehicles. Shops with porticoes with mosaic floors line the limestone road, and an open water channel lies along its centre, with sewage systems underground. Picture by Manuel Cohen
