Life on the Wall

The wall have built many years ago and used as Hamam(Turkish bath) in ottoman days. Some ancient(from Nicomedia) stones was used on it. You can see this also in the second shot on another wall in the city.
The Turkish bath, Hamam closed and not used now it is dead but nature is always alive if people leave to grow itself. There is the life on the wall against human!

The Wall

There are some models of historical buildings on this wall with its description. I think good things for remember to history about city. Maybe we would be understood very small remains since 2500 years. İzmit city was completly destroyed by earthquekes many times in the history.
Recently on a road tunnel excavation was find out the archeological foundings the 15 meters down the earth.
Old name of my city ''Nicomedia'' was established by the king Nicomedes of the Bithinia kingdom.
