The ruins of Roman Ephesus, near the port-resort of Kusadasi, is a forest of marble streets and columns. The Temple of Hadrian is in the foreground. Ephesus is the best-preserved Roman city in the Mediterranean region, and Turkey's top sight after Istanbul, but the Ephesus archaeological site is not the only reason to visit this region.
Ephesus archaeological site, lies at the foot of Ayasoluk Hill, topped by a Byzantine-Ottoman fortress. On the slope are the St John Basilica and Isa Bey Mosque, both worth a visit.
