The Mysterious Stone City The Ancient City of Dara is located in Oğuz Village, 30 kilometers southeast of Mardin. This was a vast city carved into the rock, inhabited for hundreds of years by both soldiers and civilians. Dara was founded in 505 by the Eastern Roman Emperor Anastasius as a fortified city on the frontier to defend against the Sasanians. Today its thick walls, massive cisterns, and rock-cut tombs still stand as a gateway to the past. (Generated by Artificial Intelligence) " image-e
