LEGENDARY EPHESUS | Exploring Selcuk and the Aegeon | Backpacking Turkey in 2024
Welcome to our channel. Thanks for checking us out! We are traveling around the world overland by train and we are currently in Turkey! We are taking a break from our around the world trip by rail to enjoy almost 2 months in Turkey, exploring nearly the whole country we will be enjoying the metropolis' of Modern Turkey, discovering ancient Greek and Roman cities, exploring the natural beauty and diving into mankind's pre-history past.
We made it to the city of Selcuk, Turkey. Most famous for the powerful and legendary city of Ephesus. We explore the ruins alongside our friend Rick Steves! We see the famous library, the massive agora, and spend time wandering the famous Terrace houses, the most impressive look into the past outside of Pompeii. There is more than just Ephesus in Selcuk though! We visit the Temple of Athena, a wonder of the ancient world, the basillica of St. John and see Byzantine Aqueducts too. We didn't miss the chance to escape the heat and take a swim in the Aegeon either. With much more to see, stay tuned!
