Gates to Hell found in Turkey

[B. de Corbin]

No, this isn't about a really bad Thanksgiving dinner.

Archaeologists have found a temple which contains the real, legitimate, and true door to the underworld.

Actually, it's kind of pretty... Not at all what you'd expect, except unless you are a eunuch you'll die if you go in.

'Gate to Hell' found in Turkey

I feel like "gates to hell" is a pretty terrible translation. It always bugs me when people switch "Hades" with "Hell". Beautiful ruins though. I love Greek architecture!

Yeah - that's unfortunate. I guess the editors figured it would be more impressive to write "Hell" rather than "Hades," as inaccurate as it is...

It is such a pretty place, I suppose I wouldn't mind having a look at it, the whole being dragged out dead thing might be a bit of a downer though...
