Asar Fortress....
Phrygian Valley....Anatolia's mysterious ancient Phrygians once inhabited this rock-hewn valley (Frig Vadisi), which runs haphazardly past Eskişehir, Kütahya and Afyon. Although an increasingly popular hiking destination, it is still relatively untouched and offers spectacular Phrygian relics. The rugged terrain is exhilarating and highly photogenic. The Afyon-area ruins are the best preserved, and the Eskişehir-area ruins also impress; Kütahya's are less abundant. Phrygia describes an area on the western end of the high Anatolian plateau, an arid region quite unlike the forested lands to the north and west. Phrygia begins in the northwest where an area of dry steppe is watered by the Sakarya and Porsuk river system and is home to the settlements of Dorylaeum near modern Eskisehir, and the Phrygian capital Gordion. The climate is harsh with hot summers and cold winters; olives will not easily grow here and the land is mostly used for livestock grazing and the production of barley. South of Dorylaeum, there is another important Phrygian settlement, Midas City (Yazılıkaya, Eskişehir), situated in an area of hills and columns of volcanic tufa. To the south again, central Phrygia includes the cities of Afyonkarahisar (ancient Akroinon) with its marble quarries at nearby Docimium (İscehisar), and the town of Synnada. At the western end of Phrygia stood the towns of Aizanoi (modern Çavdarhisar) and Acmonia. From here to the southwest lies the hilly area of Phrygia that contrasts to the bare plains of the region's heartland. Southwestern Phrygia is watered by the Maeander (Büyük Menderes River) and its tributary the Lycus, and contains the towns of Laodicea on the Lycus and Hierapolis

عصارخانه ها به عنوان فضاي خدماتي در تاريخ ايران، نقش بسزايي در فراهم كردن سوخت لازم برای مصارف مختلف ايفا ميكرده اند كه در اين ميان «عصارخانه شاهي» اصفهان با مساحت 360 در 700 مترمربع زيربنا از عناصر مهم محور فرهنگی، تاريخي و گردشگري اصفهان است. اين بنا در دوره شاه عباس اول و همزمان با احداث بازار بزرگ اصفهان در بازار مخلص نزديك مدرسه ملا عبدالله بنا شده است. فضاي اصلي بنا در يك طبقه با ارتفاع 11 متر است كه توسط سه فضاي گنبدي شكل ايجاد شده، و قسمتهاي جانبي آن در دو طبقه شكل گرفته است. اين بنا در سال 1298 با پيشرفت تكنولوژي تعطيل و متروكه شد. عصار خانه ها بخش مهمی از معماری دوره صفوی بوده اند که هنوز نیز از دیدنی ترین بناهای معماری آن زمان محسوب می شوند.
