Rick Steves' Europe Travel Guide | From the port of Kuşadası, we wander the streets of ancient Ephesus, soak in a natural spa at Pamukkale, learn why the dervishes whirl at Konya, munch lunch in a Turkish pizzeria, and cruise the Mediterranean on a traditional Turkish gulet from Antalya. Turkey is a mighty nation whose ancient heritage, Muslim faith, and western ways are coming together...and we’ll see how. | © 2014 Rick Steves' Europe

Ancient Stadium Hippodrome Ephesus Izmir, Turkey
While Cruising on the Celebrity Silhouette to Kusadasi, Turkey we take a cab ride to one of the oldest most magnificent Geological ruins in al of the world. This huge theater has a seating capacity of over 25,000 people. The price for admission is 25 Turkish Lira (11 Euro) a person to go inside the ancient city to walk through and see the ruins. There are many other attractions that I filmed including, Performers acing out a scene from thousands of years ago when Ephesus was in its heyday. The coolest thing about this city used to have access to the ocean via the road I walk down after I come down from the Stadium. If you look on Google maps Satellite image you can see the access road and where the water Cannel lead right into a little harbor, it has since been full with sand and is more like a marshland.
You have the option of purchasing additional headphones for a audio tour of the city.

Ephesus is located on Turkey's west coast 30 minutes from the harbour of Kusadasi. Located almost off the Greek island of Samos. In ancient times, Ephesus was a rich city of great religious and commercial importance.
The town was built in the valley between two mountains. It was located on the important silk route between Rome and the Orient. In ancient Ephesus was a city that was at the river Kaystros' estuary, but today is a town about 10 km from the coast.
According to ancient legends, the city was founded in 1100 BC by King Androklos from Athens. In the 500s, the port of Ephesus destroyed by mud from the river, and the city's economic importance decreased rapidly. The inhabitants fled due to malaria and since the city was buried in mud. Today, about 20% of the original Ephesus excavated (pictures) - streets paved with marble and ruins of the merchants' houses, temples and theaters.
