Nevertheless, we stayed in the most expensive hotel on this trip. The name of the hotel is actually called "The". The hotel is close to the noisy market, but in the morning, the sun is already high and the whole city is still very quiet. Is this a typical ancient town style?
As we came in a hurry last night and didn't experience the city well, we can't miss the morning time. We should take a good walk on a deserted morning.
In the soft light of the morning, the streets made of stone meander and stretch to every corner of the city, while the streets, white walls, gates and roofs seem to be covered with bougainvillea. The Ataturks in Alzy like flowers very much. Flowers are the deepest memory left by this city. What a petty bourgeoisie city.
It was noisy last night, but it was empty this morning. The city is asleep.
Alcatel's breakfast starts at 9: 00 and ends at 12: 00, which is obviously the rhythm of the city that never sleeps. Hotel breakfast is good, and there are Chinese meat boxes. Black tea tastes warm, but olives really taste bad. The consumption level of Al-Qiat is obviously higher than that of other cities, which is caused by the rich in Europe.
Generally speaking, I come to Alqiat to go to Cesme Beach. This is a miserable beach, but I still don't feel very clean. Obviously untidy. Isn't it authentic?
The children were fascinated. The love of water is innate.
At Onyali Beach, the sea is blue-green, and the children went straight into the sea without changing their swimsuits.
In fact, there is also a famous beach in Cessme, Ilica, which is near Yate, Alzy, but we went to Cessme, which is more than 10 kilometers away, and the result was not in place. The beach had to be abandoned because of time. For the first time, we saw the Aegean Sea thoroughly and as clear as jade, but we just hurried by.
Our focus today is Ephesus, which is located between two mountains. It is the largest city in ancient Greece and Rome, known as "the largest city in Asia" and one of the most important cities in early Christianity. But what about these honors? Time, or time, has also become so broken.
Ephesus is the worship center of Sibelius (Anatolian goddess of harvest) and Artemis. The Temple of Al themis is one of the seven wonders of the ancient world. In Roman times, Ephesus was the capital of Asia province and the residence of Roman governor. Sao Paulo has been to this city, and the Virgin Mary spent her last days here. Its amphitheater can accommodate 25,000 spectators and often performs gladiator performances. At its peak, it has 400,000 to 500,000 residents.
Ephesus is often called Pompeii of Turkey, but this statement is really unfair. Pompeii is really hard to compare with in many aspects, such as city size, history, economy and religious influence. The instant destruction of Pompeii fixed the city and life form at that time, and the excavation, protection and restoration were very complete, so it was more widely known.
What about Ephesus? Only a part of this large-scale site has been excavated so far, and this small part has shown its prosperity and exquisite architectural details to future generations.
Scraping Avenue is paved with marble, with marble columns on both sides and exquisite patterns carved on the top of the columns. Imagine that when night falls, the lights are brightly lit, and this street must be like a street in the sky.
The Celsus Library, which was built in 1 14, is definitely a classic in Ephesus. Shocking and amazing. Its exquisiteness, grandeur and beauty make everyone who has seen it unforgettable. At that time, the third largest library in the world had a collection of books 12000 volumes, and Aristotle and Plato used to borrow books here to give lectures. There are four Greek goddesses in front of the library, representing kindness, thought, knowledge and wisdom respectively. Unfortunately, all the books in Ephesus are copies, and the originals are kept in the Ephesus Museum in Vienna.
The terrace house is the residence relic of the aristocrats in Ephesus. Tickets need to be purchased separately, but LP still recommends this place. Thousands of years ago, there were actually mosaics, marble floors, murals, marble columns, bathrooms, kitchens, halls and bedrooms in the residences of the ancients, which were quite luxurious.
Opposite the row house is Hadrian Temple, next to the public toilet. The flush toilet was invented thousands of years ago, and the toilet is also a place for communication. The nobles also asked the slaves to warm up before going to the toilet. The brothel is next to the public toilet, just opposite the library. It is said that there is an underground passage between the library and the brothel. It turns out that there is no difference between ancient and modern China and foreign countries in teaching animals during the day and calling them at night. Human nature, too normal.
Trajan Fountain, Market, Public Assembly Hall, Concert Hall, Temple, all kinds of exquisite sculptures, Ephesus is dazzling. Unfortunately, at noon, the sun was too bright and hot, and there was no feeling of nostalgia at all.
The best time to see the ruins of the ancient city should be in the evening and sunset. Pale smoke collection, broken monuments, thinking about seclusion in ancient times, sighing that time is no longer!
Ephesus now belongs to Selkuk. There is a fruit stand by the road, I don't know much about it. Tomatoes must be a little, and vitamins should be supplemented in the hot sun.
At 20: 30, I finally arrived at the cotton fort ahead of schedule. It is a very rural place, but no matter how rural it is, there is always a swimming pool and a pool of clear water in front of the Turkish house.
After staying at melrose house Hotel, the menu finally has a picture, although it is simple. I bought a delicious beer early, but I haven't found a chance to have a good drink. Everybody, get up!
