Stop At: Ancient City of Ephesus, Selcuk 35920 Turkey

Today we're going to explore one of Roman's well preserved archaeological cities. Ephesus, once Asia Minor's largest harbour city and commercial centre, now welcomes thousands of tourists from around the world each year, and welcomes you!

Duration: 3 hours

Stop At: Ephesus Terrace Houses, Selcuk 35148 Turkey

Let's explore the Terrace Houses known as "the houses of rich". This particular fact gives an idea of what kind of family life there is in the Roman period. These types of houses are also called Slope houses or hill houses in Ephesus because they are being built on a hill slope. Hear the story from me while exploring every hidden corner of the houses. You will be surprised.

Duration: 1 hour

Stop At: The Basilica of Saint John, Isa Bey Mahallesi, 2013. Sk. No:1, Selcuk 35920 Turkey

Our next destination is St. John's Basilica for today. St. John's Basilica was built in the 6th century under Emperor Justinian I and his wife Theodora over the alleged site of the tomb of St. John the Apostle. Recent excavations to the east of the apse reveal a baptistery and a central pool, along with a frescoed chapel that depicts the saints. Just follow me ;)

Duration: 1 hour

Stop At: Selçuk Efes, Atatürk Mahallesi 1022 sokak no :8, Atatürk, D:2, 35920 Selçuk/İzmir, Turkey

A Peasant's Mute language Show: Be a witness of a thousand-year-old tradition with me! The one and only show in the region. Unlike the recent technological developments, the Ministry of Culture in Turkey supports the artisanal waving artwork in Selcuk region. Therefore, we would like to take you a journey of the silk from the cocoon to the patterns of a rug that shows the personal emotions of a weaver. See the cultural memory of Asia Minor into the carpets with a basilisk, with a phoenix, and painted with roots, leaves, fruits or flowers such as chamomile, linden, walnut and pomegranate. Do not miss this once in a lifetime experience!

Duration: 1 hour
