The design of the museum, the collection of cars, model cars and memorabilia is simply amazing and definitely a must see. It is hard to grasp how much love, effort and dedication it must have taken to build up this world class collection.

Ephesus Museum

This important museum displays the pieces found in and around the ruins of Ephesus. Prior to World War II, discoveries were taken to a museum in Vienna.

A must see with a great cafe (Cadir) Opposite. Easy access for people with disabilities. Lovely statues, great coin collection! After seeing this it's clear humans have not advanced, rather they've gone backwards. Thanks to the plandemic it doesn't go past me how privileged I am to see this without the usual tourist crowds.

Alsancak

Reviewed By peanutp21 - Fethiye, Turkey

The waterfront is amazing. On the way to Alsancak, make sure to see Konak Pier and the old clocktower. There are so many restaurants, bars, and cafes to choose from in Alsancak. You can walk around for hours around Sair Esref or Kultur neighbourhoods, looking at old books or shopping for anything.

Izmir Museum of History and Art

Reviewed By yats00ny

This museum has some priceless historic exhibits. The sculpture section is stunning, with examples from various ancient sites including Ephesus, Pergamon, Miletus as well as the agora in Izmir itself. The sculptures range in date from Archaic, Hellenistic and Roman periods. The pottery section is also very impressive. Highly recommended.

The Gemici family makes traditional Turkish wines with both native and noble varieties which you can find in their lovely shop alongside jams, soaps, and other homemade items. The wines are fresh and easy, great for pairing with the Aegean foods! I especially like the Sultaniye and the Aya Katrina. .

Best mall in Izmir 1. I thought malls in turkey would not be spectacular and there would have nothing I would like to buy. 2. Never thought I would be able to find an Adidas Alpha-edge 4D shoes over there. But I did find it and bought a pair of it. They are on big sale and I bought it with huge discount. Authentic Adidas shoes by the way. 3. The mall is pretty modern and feel very safe over there. 4. Definitely recommend you to visit there if you want to buy something.
