Laodicea Today: What to See near Pamukkale
A city re-emerging
Ongoing excavation has uncovered Syria Street, two theatres, a stadium, temples and a nymphaeum — Laodicea is one of the most actively growing sites on the route.
The Laodicean church
The restored early Church of Laodicea, with its baptistery, lets visitors stand inside the very congregation the lukewarm letter addressed.
Practical tips
Just 10–15 minutes from Pamukkale, combine Laodicea with the travertines and Hierapolis in one day; go early for cooler light.
