Turkey: Troy

On Monday I got three postcards: two from Singapore and one from Turkey.

The card from Turkey shows Troy. Troy has 4000 years of history and is one of the most famous historical site in the World. It was rediscovered by the famous German archaeologist Heinrich Schliemann in 1870. It is famous for the Trojan war. Since 1998 it is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.


Stamps:
World Environment Day (two from set of four) (issued 05-06-2013)


Thank You very much Leslie!
