Ephesus - 2009 Vacation Part 5

Ephesus, Turkey is an ancient Roman city. Virgin Mary spent her last years here. Today it is one of the best preserved Roman town. I have been here a little over two years ago. Seeing it again reminded me happy times we had here back then too.
Old temple - we can only imagine with the remaining columns.

Roman sculptures are incredible. Take a look of this angle. She is still so beautiful with grace weathered more than two thousand years.This is a typical Greek column design.

A large building.

The library.
A sculpture at the entrance of the library.

We can tell how large this city was in Roman days.

The road in the town center is very wide.

A very large and well preserved theater.

Romans must really know how to live. The buildings are all beautifully decorated. Sculptures are very beautiful. And they have such a large theater for their entertainment.
