Preblogging: Ephesus

Thursday, June 21 Ephesus is our last stop in Turkey. The Turkey Travel Planner (linked above) describes Ephesus as "the best-preserved Roman city in the Mediterranean region, and Turkey's top sight after Istanbul." If our bus gets in early enough, we may go ahead and see the ruins today. As far as Roman ruins go, the Ephesus archaeological site is described as "better than Rome itself." It's the ruins of an entire city, and it's a nice 3-km stroll from our hotel. Oh, and on the way we'll pass the Temple of Artemis, one of the Wonders of the Ancient World. Unfortunately, there's apparently very little left of that.
