| Merhaba (Hello) and Hosgeldiniz (Welcome) to Turkey. |
Imagine basking in the Mediterranean sun on a gullet boat surrounded by crystal clear waters or walking the marble streets of Ephesus, the former Asian capital of the Roman Empire and home to St John and the Virgin Mary. Imagine exploring the underground cities of Cappadocia and the spectacular fairy chimneys of Goreme Valley. Imagine watching the sunset fall over the dome and minaret filled skyline of Istanbul. Imagine retracing the steps of the battlefields of Gallipoli and Troy. Imagine bathing in the therapeutic waters of Pammukale with its calcium terraces and bathing pools scattered with ancient relics.
Turkey has something to inspire every traveller. Spanning across two continents, it’s the land where the Trojan War was fought and Cleopatra got married. The Romans, Byzantines and Ottomans forged their empires here. It’s a country vibrant in culture, strong in tradition and rich in cuisine but the most lasting impression will be of the people, with their warm smiles, genuine hospitality and an eagerness to make you feel at home. |

| All About Ephesus History |
| Ephesus (Ancient Greek Ἔφεσος, Turkish Efes) was an ancient Greek city on the west coast of Anatolia, near present-day Selcuk, Izmir Province, Turkey. It was one of the twelve cities of the Ionian League during the Classical Greek era. In the Roman period, it was for many years the second largest city of the Roman Empire, ranking behind Rome, the empire's capital. Ephesus had a population of more than 250,000 in the 1st century BC, which also made it the second largest city in the world.The city was famed for the Temple of Artemis (completed around 550 BCE), one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. It is now represented only by one inconspicuous column, revealed during an archaeological excavation by the British Museum in the 1870s. Emperor Constantine I rebuilt much of the city and erected new public baths. The town was again partially destroyed by an earthquake in 614. The city's importance as a commercial centre declined as the harbor was slowly silted up by the Cayster River, modern day Kucuk Menderes. for more info |  |
