At the moment, renovations are still taking place, but the theater can still be used to cultural ideas such as.. B. concerts are used.. The acoustics are unique! <9> The semicircular Orchestra has rain gutters where the water could drain.. It is surrounded by high walls that protect the public from wild animal fighting.. <9> <9> <994/2107353> <994/2107354> <994/2107355> <994/2107356> <994/2107357> <994/2107358> <994/2107297> <994/2107298> <994/2107299 > <994/2107300> <9> <9> <1023> The Ephesus Stadium «U» <9> <9> The original Hellenistic stadium between Ephesus and Seliuk was under construction by Emperor Nero.. We can see this form today.. The stadium has the mass 230mx30m and served chariot races, gladiator fights and sporting events.. The seats were at the foot of Mount Panayr.. <9> <9> <994/2107359> <994/2107360> <9> <9> <1024> Parking 2 <9> <9> Parking lot 2 is located below the complex and most of the time you come to this parking lot Again, because most travel companies and taxis drop off their guests in parking lot 1 and then pick up at this car park again.. <9> For people who like to hike up, so uphill, it makes sense of course to make the whole vice versa, so let settle here and arrange the pickup at the upper parking lot.. <9> <9> <9> <1025> Parking <9> <9> The parking lot 1 is on top of the grounds and has the advantage that, if you start from here, it runs downhill, which for the most convenient.. Therefore, usually hold the travel companies BEZW.. the taxis in this parking lot and then pick up their guests in the parking lot 2 again.. <9> <9> <9> <9> <1026> Ephesus <9> <9> is the must-see for every Turkish visitor.. One finds here probably the best preserved overall complex of an ancient city.. Even today, the huge buildings impress, ´modern´ achievements such.. As underfloor heating and toilets, which were already taken for granted at the beginning of the Christian era, as 3/4 of the rest of the world this still used the forests.. ,. ,. It had a perfect water supply, high sanitary standards and, for the spiritual welfare, a library with 12,000 books in roll form.. <9> If you walk through Ephesus today, the art of the builders is another brilliant achievement. A gentle breeze blows through the streets, making the Mediterranean heat bearable.. <9> First information about Ephesus dating from the 7th century BC. After a varied history, Persian, from 454 BC onwards.. Hellenistic, 189 BC. Belonging to the kingdom of Pergamon, Ephesus counted from 133 BC.. To the Roman Empire.. Originally a thriving seaport, Ephesus was increasingly stunted by the alluvial plains of the Kaystros River and the associated silting up of the port and eventually became unusable for maritime trade.. The decline was progressing more rapidly, and when Ephesus was conquered by the Seljuk Turks in 1090 AD, it was barely the size of an insignificant small town.. <9> In the 14th century AD, the city once again enjoyed a short flowering period, after which it was completely abandoned, also in the 14th century.. <9> For more detailed information, please refer to the relevant literature.. <9> <9> <1027> The Way to Ephesos <9> <9> There are several options: the best starting point is Kusadasi.. At each corner of the street you can book a trip to the famous site: there are bus rides with guide, but these usually include a «unnecessary» lunch and should therefore be quite expensive.. It is cheaper, you rent a taxi, the standard price, which is of course still to negotiate, is 50, - DM. For this you are driven to Ephesus, the driver waits 2 hours and you will be returned.. Even cheaper is the Dolmus, cost summer 97 about 3, - DM. <9> However, keep the Dolmus at the large parking lot below the city, you have to run the rest, or who this is too cumbersome «or hot», you just take a taxi for the small path.. Inside the site, you walk down the hill again and meet the big parking lot again.. Visits from May onwards, you should definitely bring plenty of water, sunscreen and hats! <9> The minimum, where you can visit the most impressive buildings, is u.. E. at 2 hours.. Archaeologically and historically interested people can easily spend a day here and once you are inside, you can not buy water anymore, so think about it beforehand! <9> <9> <994/2107361> <994/2107362> <994/2107363> < 9> <9> <1028> Impressions from Ephesos <9> <9> <994/2107364> <994/2107301> <994/2107302> <9>
