Canakkale - Troy's neighbours

We stop there just to take our excursion to Tray, we have a great deal on the newly renovated hotel across the boardwalk. There is a Troy horse donated by Hollywood that they use for the movie, apparently with more resemblance with the original one that the one is on the actual site! There was an important battle fought here " The battle of Gallopoli" where Ataturk show his talent as a military conductor and eventually as the father of the nation. Next day we visit Troy, and you revisit your hours in school talking about Troy! The ruins are not impressive but the memory and the legend of it is. The different layers of the city are recognizable and it is a pleasant walk.
