I would like to know what happened in this palace? what occurred in this hall during Darius the great government? can anybody help me?

The city and palace were destroyed by a conquering Alexander the Great and his men. An absolute tragedy.

Fantastic again!!

This is a place I've always
dreamed of visiting, ever since I studied Ancient history at Uni.
