Highlights

Priene

  •  One of the ancient cites of Greece- the location in the forest is remarkable and requires some walking.  

Miletus

  • A powerful city somewhat competitor to Ephesus but surpassed in grandeur it has an impressive theater and the remains of many historically noteworthy events.  

Didyma

  • If you've seen movies that demonstrate what a Greek or Roman Oracle was like then this site is a must see - still largely intact- it was a place where people came to hear from the gods.  A mix of animal sacrifice, hallucination and likely even more illicit activities ensure the seekers left with a buzz.
