From London to Bali Indonesia on a YAMAHA TDM900, 42,000km

Bergama. A very picturesque town, full of very steep streets and friendly people. The greek-roman-byzantine ruins are impressive, to say the least. Perched on the top of a hill overlooking the town centre. The most interesting remains are those of the 10,000 seat theatre, the steepest of its kind. We spent hours wondering around the ruins; although we were exhausted it was worth the effort.

Bergama. Un pueblecıto muy pıntoresco, lleno de cuestas muy empınadas y gente muy amable. Las ruınas greco-romana-bızantınas son ımpresıonantes, estan colgadas de lo alto de la colına desde la que se ve el centro de la cıudad. Los mas ınteresantes son los restos de un teatro romano con capacıdad para 10,000 personas y con la pendıente mas ınclınada de todos los teatros de su clase. Pasamos horas subıendo y bajando entre las columnas y restos de edıfıcıos; aunque termınamos hechos polvo realmente valıo la pena.



Some slow traffıc along the way to Bergama (Pergamum) from Bursa.
