What is Galatia like today?

The name Galatia is no longer used in reference to a geographical or political entity. In antiquity, it referred to a region in central Anatolia, the heart of modern Turkey. Galatia was conquered by the Roman Republic in the 2nd century BCE, and it became a province of the Roman Empire. After the fall of the Roman Empire, the area became part of the Byzantine Empire and then the Seljuk and Ottoman Empires.

The term Galatia is now primarily used to refer to the ancient region and the Celtic people who inhabited it. The modern Anatolian region encompasses various cities and towns, each with its unique history, culture, and attractions. The region offers diverse landscapes, including mountains, plains, and coastal areas, making it a multifaceted destination.
