Rotunda in Thessalonki

Rotunda in Thessaloniki Greece. In Thessaloniki you can walk the ancient Roman road the via Egnatia which Paul would have walked from his first landing in Macedonia at Neopolis all the way to Thessaloniki. The Galarius arch, commissioned by emperor Galerius in the 4th century AD is placed over the via Egnatia . A colonnaded pathway led to the rotunda which may have been intended to serve as his mausoleum. The rotunda has incredible acoustics. It has been used over the centuries as a basilica, a mosque in the time of the Ottoman rule, and a church again. There are still parts of colorful frescos and mosaics visible.
