Kusadasi Turkey

Erina & Patricia Disembarked Under Sunny Skies & the Turkish Flag

Our tour took us to Kusadasi, Turkey where we visited the ruins of the ancient city of Ephesus, known for the Temple of Artemis, one of the Seven Ancient Wonders of the World and for the Apostle Paul’s New Testament writings to the Church at Ephesus. Xerxes left his children at Ephesus when he invaded Greece around 479 B.C. Alexander the Great conquered the city in 333 B.C. and then 200 years later the Romans had gained power.
