Canakkale
雖然是個小鎮，但周邊有特洛伊遺跡、天堂島、Assos島、Gelibolu半島國立公園等等，景點很多。市中心就在港口附近，這裡也有遊客中心。南邊的
鐘塔是這裡的地標，港口北邊則有海產店與拍攝特洛伊電影時用的巨型木馬(TROY 2004)。每年的五月更是當地的羅馬節(Fevzipasa 3.
Roman Senligi) 與 春季慶典 (Hidrellez Kutlu Olsun)。
Çanakkale (pronounced [tʃaˈnakkaˌle]) is a town and seaport in Turkey, in Çanakkale Province, on the southern (Asian) coast of the Dardanelles (or Hellespont) at their narrowest point. The population of the town is 106,116 (2010 estimate).[3] The current mayor is Ülgür Gökhan (CHP).
Çanakkale Province, like Istanbul Province, has territory in both Europe and Asia. Ferries cross here to the northern (European) side of the strait.
The city is the nearest major town to the site of ancient Troy. The "wooden horse" from the 2004 movie Troy
is exhibited on the seafront. Çanakkale is the second city to be
situated on two continents after Istanbul. However Çanakkale is closer
to mid-division than Istanbul.
特洛伊（Troy，古希臘語Τροία，或Ίλιον，拉丁語Troia，或Ilium），古希臘時代小亞細亞（今土耳其位置）西北部的城邦，其被遺址發現於公元1871年。詩人荷馬創作的兩部西方文學史最重要的作品：《伊利亞特》和《奧德賽》中的特洛伊戰爭，便以此城市為中心。長期以來一直只被科學家視為虛構傳說的城市。
史詩中特洛伊的遺址在現今地理位置上，位於土耳其西北面的恰納卡萊省的希沙利克（Hissarlik，北緯39°58′度，東經26°13′度），於愛達山的西南面，離達達尼爾海峽不遠。於羅馬帝國時期，奧古斯都曾於此處建成一座名為「Ilium」的城市，直至君士坦丁堡建成後於拜占庭帝國時期迅速沒落。
公元1871年德國考古學家海因里希·施里曼發現特洛伊城遺址廢墟，其後於同址發現更多不同時代的城市遺址。其中被考古學家命名為「特洛伊Ⅶ」的遺址，被認為是荷馬史詩時期的特洛伊城，但至今仍有爭議。據考古研究，此城毀滅於公元前13世紀。
Troy (Ancient Greek: Ἴλιον, Ilion, or Ἴλιος, Ilios; and Τροία, Troia; Latin: Trōia and Īlium;[1] Hittite: Wilusa or Truwisa;[2][3] Turkish: Truva) was a city well-known to both history and legend (as well as archaeology), and situated in northwest Anatolia in what is now Turkey, south of the southwest end of the Dardanelles/Hellespont and northwest of Mount Ida. It is best known for being the setting of the Trojan War described in the Greek Epic Cycle and especially in the Iliad, one of the two epic poems attributed to Homer. Metrical evidence from the Iliad and the Odyssey seems to show that the name Ἴλιον (Ilion) formerly began with a digamma: Ϝίλιον (Wilion). This was later supported by the Hittite form Wilusa.
A new city called Ilium was founded on the site in the reign of the Roman Emperor Augustus. It flourished until the establishment of Constantinople and declined gradually during the Byzantine era.
In 1865, English archaeologist Frank Calvert excavated trial trenches in a field he had bought from a local farmer at Hisarlık, and in 1868, Heinrich Schliemann, wealthy German businessman and archaeologist, also began excavating in the area after a chance meeting with Calvert in Çanakkale.[4][5]
These excavations revealed several cities built in succession.
Schliemann was at first skeptical about the identification of Hisarlik
with Troy, but was persuaded by Calvert[6] and took over Calvert's excavations on the eastern half of the Hisarlik site, which was on Calvert's property. Troy VII has been identified with the Hittite Wilusa, the probable origin of the Greek Ἴλιον, and is generally (but not conclusively) identified with Homeric Troy.
Today, the hill at Hisarlik has given its name to a small village near the ruins, supporting the tourist trade visiting the Troia archaeological site.[7] It lies within the province of Çanakkale, some 30 km south-west of the provincial capital, also called Çanakkale.
The nearest village is Tevfikiye. The map here shows the adapted
Scamander estuary with Ilium a little way inland across the Homeric
plain.
Troia was added to the UNESCO World Heritage list in 1998.
