Troy was a city encircled by high walls impregnable.The top of the walls had ramparts from where it was easy to thwart invasions.Troy was an island approachable by sea only.The stretch of sand between the wall and sea was the only place where invaders could land which made defending Troy from the ramparts easy.

The ancient city of Troy, the location of most of the story, was located in Western Turkey. It was lost to history for over 2500 years and considered a myth until the ruins were discovered by Heinrich Schleimann, a German archeologist, in 1868.

The 1956 film "Helen of Troy" takes place in the ancient Greek city of Troy, situated in northwest Anatolia which is now modern day Turkey. It is best known as the setting where the Trojan War took place, as described by the two epic poems Homer wrote called "The Illiad" and "The Odyssey."

The Trojan War is one of the most defining tales in Greek mythology. The war the Achaeans (Greeks) waged against Troy was a result of Paris of Troy stealing Helen, the most beautiful woman in the world, away from her husband Melelaus, King of Sparta. The brother of Melelaus, King Agamemnon of Mycenae, led the attack against Troy for Paris's insult to his brother. The war raged on for ten years, until the city of Troy ultimately fell as a result of the Achaean's ruse of the Trojan Horse.

The city of Troy from the Trojan Wars is believed to be in present day Turkey. There is some dispute over whether or not Troy actually existed, but recent excavations have supported the notion that Troy did exist.
