Amazing place with a hidden floor under the ground. Definitely worth visiting if you’re around Kütahya

It is not bad, but we saw much more better antik centers in Turkey. The entry fee 2020 was low, but there was no working toilet / bathroom, just a scarry building out of the area. But they are making new gate, probably with toilets. The theatre Is not in the same area. There Is also hamam with some mosaic, but it was impossible to find it. There are no signs. We didn't find also signs to the theatre. But it loked that they are trying to rebuild the theatre now, because it was very destroyed. The area is bad described - around and inside too.

This breathtaking place is still not very popular which makes you feel quite peaceful when you wander around the ruins. Moreover, the area is well protected with barbed wires and guards. Around the temple is like an open air museum. Sculptures, stones with Greek and Phrygian inscriptions and tombstones with meticulous carvings take you thousands of years back in time. A must see place!

Having one of the most impressive and excellently preserved ancient buildings in Turkey and possibly in the world from Roman times dating back to 2nd century AD, namely The Temple of Zeus; Aizanoi is a breath-taking ancient Roman city located within the town of Çavdarhisar, Kütahya, away from busy main highways and crowd in the rural Aegean. The temple itself is commissioned by Hadrian, dedicated to two deities, ZEUS; the sky and thunder god of Olympians, and CYBELE; the mother goddess of civilizations in Anatolia. While the basement of the building is reserved for worshipping to Cybele, the section above the ground is for Zeus. The battle scenes on the walls are depicted by Turks during their reign in Anatolia in 13th century. Not only for the temple itself but for many other impressive remains including one of the first stock exchange/bourse/markets, the theater, stadium, bath, bridges, etc. the ancient Roman city of Aizanoi must be visited within the present town of Çavdarhisar in Kütahya, Turkey. You will never regret it...
