UNESCO - Nemrut Dağ, Turkey



Mount Nemrut is a mountain (2134m) in southeastern Turkey, notable for the summit where a number of large statues are erected around what is assumed to be a royal tomb from the 1st century BC. These statues are 8–9 m high and represent the founder King Antiochus I Theos of Commagene, two lions, two eagles and various Greek, Armenian and Iranian gods. Looks so surreal doesnt it??! Like Dali painting :) I got this for Choose a Country RR from aykutalpc, many thanks :)) Great huge stamps too!
