Canakkale, Turkey

-
The sprawling harbour town of Canakkale has numerous historical sites to visit.
Çanakkale is at the narrow entrance to the Çanakkale Strait, also known as the Dardanelles, linking the Sea of Marmara with the Aegean. The area has been the scene of terrible conflicts through the ages, from the Trojan Wars – Homeric Troy is thought to be close by at Truva – to the Gallipoli Landings in the First World War. The hauntingly beautiful Gelibolu Peninsula Historical National Park has war graves and memorials to the half-million men on both sides who died in that conflict.
In the town is an excellent archaeological museum with ceramics, furniture, burial artefacts, jewellery and sculpture from throughout the local area. There are fascinating displays of findings from recent excavations at the site of Troy, along with material from Hellenic tumulus dating back over 2,500 years.
