Its story

The name Adada appears in a treaty inscription from the 2nd century BC; the city enjoyed its heyday in the Roman Imperial period. Among the remains on a forested slope are temples, a theater, a church and an assembly building with stepped seating. The temple dedicated to Emperor Trajan is the city's most photographed structure. The stone paving of the ancient road is also on the route of St. Paul Trail hikers.
