EPHESUS, ANCIENT ROMAN CITY IN TURKEY 🇹🇷 

Cats are the kings in Turkey.

Nice country with an amazing history, I LOVE TÜRKİYE ☪. I'm watching this from The Gambia 🇬🇲, West Africa.

the way that old lady greeted. well thats the beauty of people in turkey. i am from pakistan living in izmir and i love people here. yaşasın türkiye. 😊😊

Osmanlı ve Selçuklu'ya çok şey borçluyuz biz sadece Türk imparatorluğunun değil aynı zamanda onun hamiliğini yaptığı Pers ve Roma medeniyetini içeriyoruz bunları benimseyip korumak için düzgün bir eğitim ve tarih şuuru şarttır.

Yumm breakfast looks good👍 I've been all around there. Miss my Turkey. 🇹🇷🇹🇷

I love Turkey. It's a beautiful country. I want to visit two countries in my life. India and Turkey.

One of the very BEST vlogs of Ephesus. Thanks so much for showing the proximity to Seljuk. I know when we went, our tour guide/ bus stopped to pick some guests from Seljuk but didn’t realize one could walk to Ephesus. We stayed at Kusadaşı when visiting but I see that Seljuk is worth to stay at to walk to Ephesus instead of being in a tour now that we know the place. Thanks so much for sharing the historical facts too. Always a great part of traveling besides the scenery and mingling with the wonderful people! LOVE Turkey 🇹🇷 from USA.

Your vlogs are good cause you're really interested with the places that you're going. Most of people don't do that, they're just visiting some places for those places are famous for some reason. Good travels Jason. This Video was so nice, i hope you're having enjoy in Izmir and also in Istanbul 🙋

Ephesos . In 1954, a burial ground from the Mycenaean era (1500-1400 BC), which contained ceramic pots, was discovered close to the ruins of the basilica of St. John. This was the period of the Mycenaean expansion, when the Achaioi (as they were called by Homer) began settling in Asia Minor, a process that continued into the 13th century BC. Ephesus was founded as an Attic-Ionian colony in the 10th century BC.The founder of the city was a prince of Athens named Androklos.He named the city Ephesos (Εφεσος) ,a name of an Amazon queen.Ancient sources (Pausanias (4.31.8) seem to indicate that the Mycenean name of the place was Alope (Ancient Greek: Ἀλόπη, romanized: Alópē).

You should've gone to Şirince as well. It's really close to Selçuk and a very cute village, known for its wines.

Ephesos (/ˈɛfəsəs/; Greek: Ἔφεσος Ephesos; Turkish: Efes) was an ancient Greek city on the coast of Ionia, three kilometres southwest of present-day Selçuk in İzmir Province, Turkey. It was built in the 10th century BC on the site of the former Arzawan capital by Attic and Ionian Greek colonists. During the Classical Greek era it was one of the twelve cities of the Ionian League. The city flourished AFTER it came under the control of the Roman Republic in 129 BC.

Thank you Jason for your video! Enjoyed seeing all the sights! I'm learning lots about Turkey from your videos! I like your music choices and I like the pacing of you videos especially the way you slowly and smoothly pan across a scene. Thank you for filming, commenting, editing, adding music and online titles and sharing. Thumbs up!

Great Video as always Jason. Informative and peaceful.. thanks!

Now THIS is what I like! Interesting, beautiful shots and full of information! I know very little about Turkey, to my shame, but after this video I’m going to continue reading and find out more! Thank you! 👏🏼

I like your adventures and your narrative ☺️ It's also nice to see that you are having a good time in my country

Thank you for sharing, what an amazing historical place 🙏 I would love to visit there one day.

Awesome video Thank you bro

Ephesus Port was much closer in the Roman times. The River Kaystros (Küçük Menderes) filled the area. The flat ground you see between agora and beach was actually the bay of Ephesus.

Excellent video Jason.

Nice vlog, that breakfast looked good.

thanks a lot Jason for this lovely video.....

you got a wonderful channel, I just found that on youtube. I've been there, and I feel nostalgic when I watch the videos of Izmir. After I watched these videos, I booked my ticket, Izmir, here I come again

Wow what a fantastic hotel room !!

Jason you look so sincere, thanks for your good thought about Efes

The Humanity must love their world and each other..The key of the life is THE LOVE..Have a nice travel Jason

Beautiful village😍😍

It is an ancient GREEK city. No one has to know everything.... But, before you write ✍ something is better to check, first. Or open books... Thank you! From Wikipedia: Ephesus Ephesus (/ˈɛfəsəs/;[1] Ancient Greek: Ἔφεσος Efesos; Turkish: Efes; may ultimately derive from Hittite Apasa) was an ancient Greek city[2][3] on the coast of Ionia, three kilometres southwest of present-day Selçuk in İzmir Province, Turkey. It was built in the 10th century BC on the site of the former Arzawan capital[4][5] by Attic and Ionian Greek colonists. During the Classical Greek era it was one of the twelve cities of the Ionian League. The city flourished after it came under the control of the Roman Republic in 129 BC.

Thanks Jason, very nice

The presentation (historical informations) of this vedio is quite impressive.And the introducing(presenter) person seems like a very decent man.

I like the casual and informative approach and the views you chose, Jason..... I wish you would linger 2 seconds longer on each; the cut to the next shot is abrupt. Music is good. Thank you.

Wonderful place. Very beautiful video. Nice creation. Great work friends.

Not to forget, the excavations are still going on in Ephesus, thus every cent you're paying is a contribution to these excavations.

Beautiful country. Hope and pray to be there in the next 2-3 years.

Perfect place👍

Wonderful

Awesome 👍👏

I have nothing to do with the Turks, but these ancient Turks are ancient Greeks, I come from these places and it is my honor to come from Izmir, my grandmother's parents were from Izmir, they left in 1922

Merry Christmas 2018 & Happy New Year 2019

beautiful description

I suggest to you should go Şirince.This village is one of the most important historical places of Selçuk.And you can taste really delicious free wine :)

Visited this place 10yrs ago and was fantastic archaeological site. A must for historians but not tourists.

Thanks Jason from Milton Keynes

Pity you aren't going to Tarsus, there is a lot of history there as well. Great videos, thank you for sharing

I also loved Ephesus - I posted a video also on Ephesus - but as per usual never gets the views your videos get. Nice video once again

BEAUTIFUL

Nice video. You ate PIDE, wish is similar to Pizza, but with out tomatoes sauce.

You should come to Trabzon. There is Sümela Manastry in Trabzon and in my opinion its very important for Christians. Besides,there are many things to to in Trabzon. You can eat our local food and im sure you will like its. I hope that you call on Trabzon

Hi Jason, I love your videos and I think, you should go to Bursa, the first Ottoman Capital.

Tuckey? Did you forget there is an R in the name? I visited Turkey (Turkiye) for what I thought would be 3 weeks. I loved it so much, I stayed 3 months. It's hard to believe that was 34 years ago. I thought the Temple would have been more reconstructed by now. It looks the same with just that 1 piece. Thanks for the great tour and bringing back so many fond memories. I visited there about 7 times. Back then it was the equivalent of 90 cents US to see everything. $1 = 2,200 Turkish Lira then. Thanks again.

You can go to the city center of Izmir(and also lots of different points of the city) from this train station for 6.5 Turkish Liras. This public transportation system has a 140km of a rail line. It starts from Alsancak(which is near to Agora ancient city and Kemeralti bazaar) and it ends in Seljuk. It is quite cheap if you are a student in Turkey and citizens use this trains every day.

You need to come here at summer time too now it is so cold :)

You should definetly visit ancient lycian cities such as Xantos, Patara, Pınara, Kaunos and many more. They are very like Ephesus but also are more unique. If you hadnt visited ancient Lycian realm, I strongly advice you to go those ones for your next trip in Turkey and try to come in summer as you could also take a chance to see and go to our paradise Coastal cities, Antalya and Muğla. I hope we will see you in Turkey once more and I hope your travel here in this country were amazing. Cheers mate.

Omg you are so cute and welcome to Turkey 😻

I love Turkey! :))

The town has smartened up a lot since I stayed in 1984 .

Have been there too :), the best time to visit this site is summer, don’t forget to visit Pergamon (bergama) in north part of Izmir (near tho :D) the site located at the top of the mountain. Its really recommended... anyway I met that cat too when I visited the castle 2 years ago :D

Ephesus is ancient Greek city actually. Ancient Greek history is so interesting

Aga ben daha mahallemden dışarı çıkamıyorum adam ülke değiştiriyor.

Very good.👍👍👍

Selçuk! I was born and raised in Germany but my dad is actually coming from Selçuk.

Omg you were in my town and I didn't notice 😂😂😂

Hi jason i'm from istanbul o know turkey and historical places to me you should go erzurum there is very good city like other cities if you go erzurum u should go palandöken mountain ( at the moment very very cold) ,lake of tortum and waterfall , narman fairy chimney in erzurum . If you go u should eat cağkebap .

Hello l am from turkey. Welcome 🇹🇷

Hey bro. I did watch your Ankara and Antalya videos yesterday. Now you in my town :) be surprised. if you dont have dinner not yet you must try çöp şiş kebab in town. Almost you can see in everywhere. Respect :)

I have watched a lot of your videos, overall the sound is really clear and so is the graphic, what camera and tool do you use?

Welcome to Turkey😊

I've been to Ephesus and virgin Mary. Ephesus is breathtakinly large. Thanks.

I used to live in Izmir, Turkey very, very many moons ago (1963-1967). I think of it often.

Google taught me this today Merhaba nasılsın

Έφεσος is Greek ancient City 😊

Love Turkey and Turkish Food

13:26. It is called "Pide"

Nice Room 😍😍💋💋

Nice video but the title is wrong. Ephesos was actually a Greek city, as the language of its inscriptions, its art and its history prove. Also in Roman times Cairo didn't even exist, Egypt's biggest city was of course Alexandria.

Hello, Have you ever felt tired or lonely travelling alone and filming around? Do you have clips behind the scene so we may have an idea on how is it like to talk to locals, how to get to one place to another. I traveled before alone just to see if I can make it, and I did and it's fulfilling to overcome something but there are times I felt not good... Anyway your videos are great. I am planning to visit Turkey someday and hoping to get more info from your videos.

the way you presented that one column 😂

Woww this is nicer then Rome..

Ephesus was an ancient Greek Ionian city built 8th century BC. Was Roman during the Era of Roman rule. Simple history.

İt would have been so much easier if you just take the train because train station in Izmir is in very central area and next to the metro etc so you can just use the metro to your accommodation. On the other hand main bus station is little bit far from things. Anyway miss you Izmir.

'Εφεσσος, as it was called, was a Greek city. It was under Roman rule, then again under Greek rule when the Byzantine Empire , the Greek continuation of the Roman Empire was the dominant force in the area.

1st view 1st like 1st comment 1st time 😛🔥love from Bangladesh 💓

Bir gün ben de gidecem umarım

How far from Istanbul..and best way to reach here..I have plan in dec..pls tell

Hello, I am an american and will be be traveling through turkey with a friend of mine (both Males), starting in the east near Şanlıurfa (Gobekli Tepi) and ending in Istanbul. We are going to stop in Cappadocia and Pummukale and Ephesus… and are looking for more ancient, beautiful sites in between. We are traveling to learn about the ancient history of the world and to take pictures to help people learn about these places. If anyone could point us in the right direction for amazing places to stay or tips for our travel, I would greatly appreciate it. We are both Vegan too (don’t eat animal products) so any tips for finding food that meets our diet would be very much appreciated. Turkey looks beautiful and It is my hope that we can connect with kind, loving people on this journey and build a peaceful world for us all to thrive in. Blessings, thank you
