Mausoleum of Helicarnassus

Well you can't pass up the chance to see one of the seven wonders of the ancient world when you're on holiday can you?! Shame there isn't as much to see as I'd thought but you can still get the picture, and it's pretty cool to be there.

Hrysopolitissa Basilica

This very old church is now just ruins but you can see how grand it would have been. And if you believe the rumours, you can also see the pillar where St Paul was tied up and whipped by the Romans.

We took a trip out to these ruins that date back to 5BC and it was pretty astonishing that anything was left at all! Wonderful spot with beautiful views too.

Forum Romanum

I went to Rome with my sister and when we got to this area I though it looked a bit like a dumping ground for roman architecture. She pointed out loads of things like temples and basilicas and really brought the place to life!

Xel-ha Ruins

I cannot believe how lovely Cancun is! These ruins were in the middle of some pretty dense jungle and it was amazing to come out and find the ruins. The pyramid and mural inside were my top bit here.
