Lake BAFA - Ancient City of Herakleia
AIRVŪZ STAFF NOTE :
Contributor and pilot Ezgierol used a DJI Phantom 4 drone to create this magnificent video Lake Bafa, one of the most important lakes in Turkey. The lake is part of the Bafa Lake Nature Preserve, which straddles the Muğla and Aydin Provinces of southwestern Turkey in the country's Aegean region. Prior to the Classical Period, the lake was actually part of a gulf of the Aegean Sea. You'll also see some epic aerial footage of the ruins of Herakleia, an ancient city which is an important cultural landmark of the region.

This is a short aerial footage over Bafa Lake, which was a gulf of the Aegean Sea during the ancient period, was disconnected from the sea with its alluvions carried by the Büyük Menderes River and turned into a lake. In ancient times, the Gulf, which was an extension of the Aegean Sea and also was home to the ancient city of Herakleia, was called Latmos Bay. Shot on Dji Phantom 4.
