Built by Julius Aquila in 110 A.D. as a memorial for his father, the Celsus Library is one of the finest buildings in Ephesus. The two-story building contained over 12,000 hand-written books, making it one of the largest library collections of its time.

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!

Decided to do this trip DIY.
Caught the car ferry from Canakkale (Tl35 O/W for car and driver) and drove north via Eceabat ( an alternative ferry port ) and then inland to Kabatepe.
From there I drove along a beautiful cost road visiting Anzac Cove and surroundings. Some of the Cemeteries names gives you pause for thought like SHRAPNEL VALLEY CEMETERY or HELL SPIT CEMETERY.
Doing a self drive allowed me to stop and ponder at leisure.
I drove south taking in a range of other Sights including the Cape Helles memorial ( where I accidentally came across my family name a number of times ) and included a trip up to Abide ( a massive, massive stone monument )
What I particularly liked was the small ( compared to Normandy etc ) Cemeteries mostly located where offensives took place.

I went there because my son is interested in cars, because some friends asked me about it... so I wanted to discover myself. A bit hard to find, an unbelievable location in the industrial aerea of Torbali / Izmir. But WAWWWWW once I was inside, it is so impressive, so well maintained, so attractive... even for people (like me) who are almost not interested in cars..... A real discovery!
