Up Turkey, May 2011 » Ephesus Prev Next Slideshow

The ancient city of Ephesus is only 3 km from Selçuk. It was prosperous already in the -7th century and passed through many hands before being captured by Alexander the Great in -343. It was destroyed by the Goths in 262, so most of the buildings are in sad shape. Still, walking through and looking at it took us 3 hours and gave a vivid impression of how large and important it once was.
