About Ephesus Restaurant
Efes, or Ephesus in ancient times, was an important city on the Aegean coast of Turkey near modern-day Izmir. It was once the Roman capital of Asia. The archaeological site is now a famous tourist attraction featuring many impressive ruins.The Temple of Artemis was one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, though sadly now reduced to a single standing column. Fortunately, many of the archaeological remains are better preserved, including the Gymnasium of Vedius, a combined gymnasium and bath complex dating from around AD 150, and the Theatre, a massive tiered structure carved into the side of Mount Pion that could seat 24,000 people.
The Marble Road leads from the Theatre past the Library of Celsus, with its beautiful marble facade, to the Baths of Scholastica.
