Efes, known in English as Ephesus, is Turkey's most
important antique city, and one of the best preserved
and restored. Dating back 3,000 years, one can still
stroll for hours along its streets, past temples, theaters,
libraries, houses, and statues. This was a place for
cults.
Cybele, the Goddess of Anatolia was replaced by Artemis
for whom the most sumptuous temple was built in Ephesus
considered to be one of the seven wonders of the ancient
world.
