    Ephesus Archaeological Museum

    The Ephesus Museum is located just a few minutes from my guesthouse as the road from Ephesus itself enters town. It has exhibits from the Mycenaean, Archaic, Classic, Hellenistic, Roman, Byzantine, Seljuk and Ottoman Eras. Exhibits are mostly from the finds of the ancient city. They have some very nice sculptures from the Roman era of course. There is also a stunning statue of the goddess Artemis, namesake of the nearby Temple. The exhibit on the cults was also interesting.Read more
