"One moment in mythology"
'He who had laid eyes on it once will be
convinced that the world of the immortal gods has moved
from the heaven to earth' said the ancient poet Philon
who saw the Temple of Artemis in Ephesus. Being the
homeland of such masterpieces, artists and philophers
throughout history, Ephesus nurtured a succession of
civilizations that shaped our world. The civilisations
that founded Ephesus, fostered an incredible flowering
of art, architecture, philosophy, science and
literature. Now, a historical resort by Aegean Coasts,
it casts an irresistible spell of enchantment. The
Artemis Temple, one of the Seven Wonders of The World,
Mother Mary Church, The Curetes Street, the Celsus
Library, The Temple of Hadrian, and the Ephessus Theatre
are the main attractions of the town. |
