ÖNEMLİ BİLGİLER
-Ephesus is one of Turkey's best-preserved ancient cities. You can think of it as Turkey's Pompei, although it is more extensive than Pampei.
-Imagine an entire city made of marble. All Streets are made of marble or granite. That's why marble reflects the heat in summer. That's why if you are coming to Ephesus in summer, wear a hat, umbrella, sun cream, sports shoes, and a T-shirt.
-Saint Paul, recognizing the significance of the metropolis, arrived in 50 CE and converted a small group of Ephesians to the new religion. Some perceived this development of Christianity as a threat to the glory of Artemis and forced Paul and his followers to depart.
-The ruins from the Roman and early Christian eras are so extensive and well preserved that one need not struggle to imagine the daily interaction of the 250,000 people who lived here nearly two millennia ago. As a strategic coastal gateway to the Eastern world, this Ionian refuge grew to be the second-largest city in the Roman Empire.
We will pick you up from Kusadasi Port or your hotel. If you are an excursionist from a cruise ship, we will meet you at the port of Kusadasi with your name.
