Ephesus.

St. Paul's letter to the Ephesians....was it Paul? Regardless, Ephesus is old. Whoever was writing the letters to the Ephesians was preaching to the Romans that were still praying the their pagan gods.

The ruins that are there have been restored and reconstructed to give a comparatively strong impression of a city, rather than the usual solitary building or temple.

The library is beautiful and impressive. Everyone loved the latrines outside the roman baths.....you can see them in the foreground of the picture with the library again in the background.

I really enjoyed walking down the marble road. Most places I visit, whether it is a modern functioning city or a historical site, I picture what it would like to live there or have lived there. The road made it very easy to time travel.
