It is truly amazing. To see the history of something that dates back that far. The only other area of the world that can really rival that is China which has things going back 5,000 years.
It is sad to think of the devastation caused by the natural disaster. Even with our modern technology, we are still at the whim of nature. The Tsunami a few years ago taught us that.
It must be amazing to step into a place like that and feel what it is like to live in a different time. It is easy for us to get caught up in what is in front of us today. Even watching a television show from the 1950s or 1960s seems ancient to us today. Yet that is nothing compared to those who lived 2,000 years ago.
It is always a reminder how far we have come.
Thanks for taking us on your journey.
