Persepolis: The Most Magnificent City Ever Built — Why Did Alexander Burn It?

This majestic studio production takes you inside the most magnificent building the ancient world ever created — and shows you the night Alexander the Great burned it to the ground. At a drunken party. In 330 BCE. Three Persian kings spent 60 years building Persepolis. It was gone in three days. This miracle studios production rebuilds Persepolis as it actually was — at the peak of its power, when it was the undisputed center of the world. Cyrus the Great conquered three empires in twenty years — then declared every people under his rule had the right to worship their own gods, speak their own language, and live by their own customs. The UN has a replica of his cylinder in its lobby today. Darius cut a platform 125,000 square meters into solid rock, brought architects from Greece, craftsmen from Egypt, cedar from Lebanon, gold from Bactria. 100,000 workers. 60 years. The result: the Apadana throne room — 72 columns 20 meters tall — that could hold 10,000 people standing. The Treasury that held 120,000 talents of gold and silver. The staircase carvings showing 36 nations walking freely, upright, dignified — with not a single image of violence anywhere. And then Alexander burned it. At a party. His historians say he wept in the morning and called it his greatest mistake. Six columns still stand today, visible from 40 kilometers away. The stone bulls of the Gate of All Nations are still watching. 95% of the surrounding plain has never been excavated.
