- Ancient City of Ephesus - An archaeological treasure, Ephesus is the best-preserved classical city in the Eastern Mediterranean. In the 1st century AD, Ephesus was the second-largest city in the world after Rome, with over 250,000 residents. It was at the center of the known world, serving as a gateway between the East and the West. With its vast harbor, it was also a hub of trade in antiquity. Ephesus was not only a wealthy commercial city but also an impressive one, where even Mark Antony and Cleopatra spent their honeymoon. It is home to one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, the Temple of Artemis. Ephesus is so well-preserved that walking through its ancient streets among beautiful monuments, such as the third-largest library of the ancient world or the largest Roman theater on the Asian continent, feels like traveling back in time.
- The Temple of Artemis - The Temple of Artemis, or Artemision, was one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. Its ancient cult dedicated to Artemis was renowned in antiquity, making Ephesus a popular pilgrimage site. The temple featured 127 Ionic columns, each 19 meters high. It is also considered the earliest bank of the ancient world.
