The first stop is a two-hour visit to Ephesus, once the second largest city in the Roman Empire with over 250,000 residents in the 1st century BC. Visitors walk through marble streets and see important landmarks including the large amphitheater with seating for over 25,000 people, statues of the Goddess Nike, the Local Pharmacy, Hadrian's Gate, the Library of Celsus, Marble Street, and Harbour Street.
