Philadelphia
Alaşehir, Türkiye · Roman Asia Minor
Founded on a fertile but earthquake-prone plain, Philadelphia was a small city with modest strength. Revelation 3:7-13 praises its church for keeping Christ's word and promises an open door no one can shut. Fragments of a Byzantine basilica remain in modern Alaşehir.
