1800 years ago, the Great Colonnade of Apamea in Syria wasn’t just a road; it was a towering testament to the ambition and grandeur of its time. Spanning nearly 2 kilometers, it wasn’t just one of the longest colonnades in ancient history; it was a bold statement of power, prestige, and architectural brilliance during the Seleucid Empire. After a relentless earthquake tried to destroy it in 115 AD, they didn't back down—they reconstructed it, like a phoenix rising from the ashes.
