Coming to Ephesus, you can't miss the ruins of the ancient city of Ephesus. Ephesus is a relic ancient city in the eastern Mediterranean, this thousand-year-old city is located on the east coast of the Aegean Sea in western Turkey, and is currently the largest Greek-Roman ancient city in the world. Ephesus was once a big city established by the ancient Greeks in Asia Minor, most of which is now only ruins, this once famous city has partly become the Turkish town of Selcuk today. This ancient city is full of magical colors, the Celsus Library is a building ruin in the ruins of the ancient city of Ephesus in Turkey, the towering two-story Ionian columns are its prominent features, grand and majestic, it looks like a palace from a distance. The front of the library is 16 meters high and 21 meters wide, with 16 beautifully carved and well-preserved large stone pillars in front of the door. The Temple of Hadrian is the most exquisite building among the many ruins on both sides of the Christ Street in the ancient city of Ephesus, it is a representative of the Corinthian temple, with carvings of different mythological characters on the inner wall columns, being in Ephesus in Turkey, it seems to travel back to the prosperous Roman capital, as the most eye-catching world heritage in Turkey, it is full of ancient charm. Although there are many ancient city ruins in Turkey, seeing Ephesus is truly shocking, although it is not very complete. But it has fully demonstrated the previous prosperity. No matter how vividly and vividly the later generations depict the scene they see with their own eyes, it is not as real as the feeling of being on the scene to get close to history. This kind of ancient building that has been preserved through the vicissitudes of the years, when you touch it with your own hands, that kind of feeling is indescribable. Transportation: You can take the minibus of Pamukkale and Kusadasi by bus, and then walk for 20 minutes to reach the ticket office of the back door; Take a taxi from Selcuk to the ancient city of Ephesus, the fare is 15-20 lira The two entrances of the ancient city of Ephesus are 3 kilometers apart, and general tourists will choose to enter from the upper door, walk down all the way, and exit from the lower door.
