Sightseeing
Beaches in Cesme are one of the finest in Turkey. Take a taxi (around 40 TL), tram or subway to Cesme bus station in Uckuyular. Cesme buses depart every 15 mins and cost 20 TL and takes about an hour travel. I recommend getting off at Ilica for public beaches. Do spend some time in historic town Alacati also famous for its wind surfing and night life, after parties

Visiting the ruin of Ephesus means visiting the heart of the Aegean. This ancient Roman city was once a popular stop on the Silk Road, where people from all over the world sailed to the port and traded exotic spices and fruits and visited the talented Turkish cloth-makers. Ephesus is the largest collection of Roman ruins in the eastern Mediterranean and only an estimated 15 to 20 percent has been unearthed and still being excavated.

An ancient ruin in the middle of a bustling metropolis city, Agora Open Air Museum is a part of the everyday landscape for most residents of Izmir. Agora, a central public space in the ancient Greek period, was a place of gathering or assembly. It was built by Alexander the Great and finished by the Roman Empire. It’s a marketplace, once an important stop on the Silk Road, and also a place for a serious political discussion.
