‘King’s Daughter’ in Yozgat to open to tourism

The Basilica Therma, a Roman-era bath in the Central Anatolian province of Yozgat’s Sarıkaya district, known as the “King’s Daughter” among locals, is set to open to tourism within a few years once excavations have ended. 

Sarıkaya Mayor Ömer Açıkel said the bath depicted the artistic and historical features of the Roman Empire. 
He also said some business places were expropriated as part of the excavation works. 

“After the expropriation, the bottom of the columns and a half-Olympic pool were unearthed. Inside this pool is an early Christian-era baptism stone that was used since the Roman era. Two small pools in the back side were also unearthed and the expropriations are continuing,” Açıkel added.
