Ancient City of Ephesus

Ancient Ephesus, located in the Aegean Cost of Turkey, is one of the most attractive, big and old tourist destinations in the world. Ancient Ephesus is visited by a million of tourists every year. It was the capital of Romans in Asia Minor 2000 years ago. After the excavations it became a huge open air museum where the most important Roman works and art can be seen. There are two gates in Ephesus; upper gate and lower gate. There is a gentle slope, so Ephesus tours start at the top gate and finish at the lower gate. Ephesus is in 20 minutes driving distance to a famous touristic seaboard city called Kusadasi and about 1 hour drive to Izmir which is the 3rd biggest city of Turkey. It is possible to travel to Ephesus via highway, sea road and railway. For more information please also visit our Ephesus Blog and Ephesus Tours pages
