Ephesus

This was the most amazing ruins/archaeological sight I have ever seen! Ephesus was a port city for all ancient civilizations over 2000 years old. Only a small portion has been uncovered, but was has is fascinating and you can really envision life back then and how it used to be. It was so hot out it was almost unbearable, but our tour was great! We saw the great theatre (where St. John preached), the Temple of Artemis, The library of Celsus and so much more! I’m not so much for ruins but Ephesus really exceeded my expectations. Later back in Kusadasi, I shopped around their Bazaar and took in the scenery. There was a really nice beach close by. So far I am very impressed with Turkey.
