Horse of Troy

Sitting on the ruins of Troy

I made a little trip to the western coast of Turkey with some friends. First destination was Çanakkale where has been remarkable battle in the First World War. Therefore there were graves, weapons, castles, bunkers and other things related to the war to see. Nearby about 20 minutes car ride from Çanakkale is also historical city Troy. Almost everybody knows the story how the city of Troy was conquered with the help of wooden horse. The horse in the picture is the horse what was used in the movie Troy (2004) starring Brad Pitt and Orlando Bloom. There is another horse where the ruins of the Troy are and third in one gas station between Çanakkale and Troy.
