Ancient City of Ephesus

2h
Admission ticket included

Of Turkey's hundreds of ancient cities and classical ruins, Ephesus is the grandest and best preserved.

Ancient Ephesus was a great trading city and a centre for the cult of Cybele, the Anatolian fertility goddess.

The Temple of Artemis

Bibliotheque de Celsus

20m
Admission ticket included

This magnificent library dating from the early 2nd century AD, the best-known monument in Ephesus, has been extensively restored.

Facade niches hold replica statues of the Four Virtues. From left to right, they are Sophia (Wisdom), Arete (Goodness), Ennoia (Thought) and Episteme (Knowledge).

Isa Bey Mosque
