Reviewed By waqarsarwar - Riyadh, Saudi Arabia

The Celsus Kutuphanesi or as we call it a 'Library' was built by the Roman civilization of Ephesus town. Only the remains of the library stand till date but they do give an idea of what used to be here years ago. Must visit place!

The Terrace Houses

Wealthy Ephesians inhabited these luxurious houses on the slopes of Bülbül Mountain.

Reviewed By Belgo96 - Australia

The state of preservation of these terraced houses is remarkable. The frescoes and murals are absolutely spotless and far from looking like recent excavations. They actually have the appearance of only recently being vacated! Before visiting Ephesus I had assumed that the closest I would get to seeing and imaging in the interior of Roman houses would be the magnificent Pompeii rooms in the Met Museum, However, there is no substitute for seeing original frescoes and murals in situ under a Mediterranean sun. Requiring an additional ticket to visit clearly deters many visitors who only care to see the Library. We went around the site almost on our own despite its location on the principal street to the Library. These houses are equally as memorable as The Library facade. Not to be missed.

Curetes Street

One of the main streets through the city, it was once lined with Fountains, monuments and various shops and galleries.

Reviewed By Gussy1dog - Northwich, United Kingdom

As in the title, the curates street was where the main houses/stores etc were. It's a good steep climb, so better to walk down than up. In places you can still see the stone metal rings where they would rest and tie off their goods as they rested. There is plenty to see either side of the street such as Hadrians temple and the covered Terrace houses. Pics to follow.

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.

Reviewed By Belgo96 - Australia

The museum is nicely laid out with descriptions of items available in English as well as Turkish. The museum contains the treasures unearthed at and nearby Ephesus. It is well designed, modern and air-conditioned, which is really welcome because it is generally so hot outside. It has a nice little sculpture courtyard (complete with relaxing Ephesus cats). The gift shop is a level above what you usually find in Greek/Turkish museums generally. This added to our Ephesus experience.
