Morning light carves the columns into relief as your minibus slips east from Antalya toward the spread of Pamphylia’s ruins. At Perge you step off pavement into a Roman city where colonnaded avenues and an open-air stadium press history close enough to touch; the stones still remember marching legions and market traders.
