BETTANY HUGHES’ TREASURES OF THE WORLD

6.50PM, CH4

Professor Bettany Hughes is in Turkey to visit more breathtaking ancient sites. This episode was postponed after earthquakes rocked the region last month, and some of the places Bettany explores here were affected by the disaster. The historian takes us on a guided tour of the underground cave cities of Cappadocia and, in eastern Turkey, she visits the pilgrimage site of Urfa. She also hikes up Mount Nemrut (above) to see the highest open-air museum in the world.
