About Ephesus
Visit the old city of Ephesus, a former thriving hub of the Roman Empire that’s now one of Turkey’s most striking archaeological spots. Start at the famous Library of Celsus, an amazing example of an old-world building that used to store thousands of scrolls. Stroll along streets paved with marble flanked by temples, shops, and Roman baths picturing life in this wealthy city almost 2,000 years ago.
Check out the Great Theatre of Ephesus where St. Paul once spoke to the Ephesians, and stop by the Terrace Houses. These houses show off well-kept mosaics and frescoes that give you a peek into the daily lives of Ephesus’ rich folks. Make sure to see the Temple of Artemis one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, and pay your respects at the House of the Virgin Mary, which many think was her last home.
Think about how important Ephesus was in history as a hub for trade, culture, and early Christianity. You’ll be surrounded by what’s left of its glory in the peaceful Anatolian countryside. Whether you’re exploring the old ruins or thinking about its spiritual background, Ephesus grabs your attention with its charm that never gets old.
