Çeşme highlights nine of its faces
The western Turkish town of Çeşme, a district of the İzmir province, has launched a campaign to promote nine of its local destinations known for their unique beauty.
“We think that not all the aspects of Çeşme are known, despite the fact that it is one of the most popular and oldest destinations in Turkey and the pearl of the Aegean,” Mayor Muhittin Dalgıç said at a launch ceremony at Istanbul’s Rahmi Koç Museum on April 7.
A hub of joy
The local population of the whole peninsula is around 35,000, but it is increasingly becoming an important tourist destination that rivals Bodrum.
“We perceive Çeşme as a hub of joy that lives to its fullest 12 months of the year. All of these neighborhoods, Reisdere, Ovacık, Ilıca, Ildırı, Germiyan, Dalyan, [Çeşme center], Çiftlikköy and Alaçatı, present different experiences for various preferences,” he said.
Alaçatı
Named “Agrilia” in ancient times, Alaçatı is at the very center of the ancient region of Ionia, starting from the south of İzmir and reaching all the way to the Menderes River. Alaçatı is noted for its breeze that does not move the sea surface, wind surfing, terebinths dripping turpentine from its branches, Friday antique market, oriel-windowed mansions and herb festival that has become a gastronomical tradition. Its historical stone houses were mostly built between 1850 and 1890. With its conservationist approach, Alaçatı has become one of the most authentic resorts on the Aegean.
Germiyan
Ethnically different from others, the Turkmen village Germiyan is a settlement built by an Anatolian principality, the Germiyanids, and is home to a unique olive type, the “date olive.” This olive species, which is endemic to the region, and the town’s sourdough bread make the village famous. The coffeehouse in the village square has an authentic ambiance and tourists often stop by for a tea.
Ilıca
Ilıca is one of Çeşme’s most popular spots with its wide and almost 2-kilometer-long beaches with white sand, offering quality accommodation and thermal facilities. Warm thermal waters in the sea make the Ilıca beach and other beaches around the area a giant thermal pool. One of the most important features of Çeşme’s beaches, especially Ilıca, is that the waters remain shallow for the first 100 meters from the shore. Ilıca offers an extremely pleasant and safe vacation opportunity for especially families with children and senior travelers.
Ovacık
Ovacık, with its adjacent soft peaks and regional breeze, is a very unique area. For this reason, vineyards and wine production are quite widespread. There are many professional and amateur vineyards in the region. Alongside wine producing, fruit juice, olive oil, lavender and grape seed trade is also important. Ovacık is a destination for gastronomy enthusiasts with its special artichokes, melons and sheep, which are under protection.
Ildırı
Ildırı is located 27 kilometers away from Çeşme’s center on a beautiful bay with small islands. It was the first ancient settlement in the Çeşme Peninsula, known originally as Erythrai. The ancient theater on the north slope of the acropolis was built in the third century B.C. The Athena Temple and the ancient theater are extremely beautiful for archaeology enthusiasts, especially at sunset. Ildırı also has much to make visitors salivate, with artichokes, fish restaurants, lokma (donut-like Aegean snack) and breakfast venues.
Dalyanköy
Also known as “Eski Camii” (Old Mosque), Dalyanköy is two kilometers north of Çeşme. During the Byzantine era, the father in law of Kılıç Arslan I, Emir Çaka, seized the peninsula and arrived in Çeşme in 1081, settling Turks from the Oghuz tribe there. With the ruins of the mosque and wide cemetery, it is an interesting example of 11th-century Turkish settlement. The village attracted a lot of migrants from the Black Sea at the beginning of the last century. Dalyan is a must-see stop for a variety of choices for flavor seekers with its fish and seafood restaurants.

Trip to Turkey 4.3.15
Ephesus (/ˈɛfəsəs/;[1] Greek: Ἔφεσος Ephesos; Turkish: Efes; ultimately from Hittite Apasa) was an ancient Greek city[2][3] on the coast of Ionia, three kilometres southwest of present-day Selçuk in İzmir Province, Turkey. It was built in the 10th century BC on the site of the former Arzawan capital[4][5] by Attic and Ionian Greek colonists. During the Classical Greek era it was one of the twelve cities of the Ionian League. The city flourished after it came under the control of the Roman Republic in 129 BC. According to estimates Ephesus had a population of 33,600 to 56,000 people in the Roman period, making it the third largest city of Roman Asia Minor after Sardis and Alexandria Troas.[6]
The city was famed for the Temple of Artemis (completed around 550 BC), one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. In 268 AD, the Temple was destroyed or damaged in a raid by the Goths.[7] It may have been rebuilt or repaired but this is uncertain, as its later history is not clear.[8] Emperor Constantine I rebuilt much of the city and erected new public baths. Following the Edict of Thessalonica from emperor Theodosius I, what remained of the temple was destroyed in 401 AD by a mob led by St. John Chrysostom.[9] The town was partially destroyed by an earthquake in 614 AD. The city's importance as a commercial center declined as the harbor was slowly silted up by the Cayster River (Küçük Menderes).
Ephesus was one of the seven churches of Asia that are cited in the Book of Revelation.[10] The Gospel of John may have been written here.[11] The city was the site of several 5th century Christian Councils (see Council of Ephesus). It is also the site of a large gladiators' graveyard. The ruins of Ephesus are a favourite international and local tourist attraction, partly owing to their easy access from Adnan Menderes Airport.

Sanat Tarihi
Girit Uygarlığı, Tunç Çağı'nda Yunanistan'a bağlı olan, Ege Denizi içindeki Girit Adası'nda, MÖ yaklaşık 3.500'lerde doğmuş bir uygarlıktır. Girit uygarlığı, MÖ 2700 ile MÖ 1450 yılları arasında en parlak dönemlerini yaşadı ve yavaş yavaş eski gücünü yitirmesinin ardından Girit üzerinde Miken kültürü baskınlaşmaya başladı.
Girit Uygarlığı'nın tüm dünyada yaygın olarak kullanılan bir adı olan Minos terimi, ülkenin mitolojik kralı Minos'tan esinlenerek İngiliz arkeologlar tarafından türetilmiş ve daha sonra köklü bir biçimde yerleşmiştir. Ancak Giritlilerin bu dönemde kendilerini ne olarak adlandırdıkları bilinmemektedir. Eski Mısır kaynaklarında Keftiu, Sami dillerindeki Kaftar ve Suriye'deki Mari kentinde bulunan yazıtlarda Kaptara olarak geçen bir yer adının Girit Adası'na ait olduğunu sanılmaktadır. Girit Uygarlığı'nın dağılmasından sonra ortaya çıkan Odysseia destanında Homeros, Girit'in yerlilerini Eteokritiki (Yunanca: Ετεοκρητική, Gerçek Giritliler) olarak adlandırmıştır. Bunların, Girit Uygarlığı'nın yıkılması ile Miken Uygarlığı'nın oluşması arasındaki süreçte, önceden adada yaşayan Giritlilerin torunları olduğu sanılmaktadır.

The Minoan civilization was a Bronze Age Aegean civilization on the island of Crete and other Aegean Islands which flourished from c. 2700 to c. 1450 BC, before a late period of decline, finally ending around 1100 BC. It preceded and was absorbed by the Mycenaean civilization of ancient Greece. The civilization was rediscovered at the beginning of the 20th century through the work of British archaeologist Sir Arthur Evans. The name Minoan derives from the mythical King Minos and was coined by Evans, who identified the site at Knossos with the labyrinth and the Minotaur. The Minoan civilization has been described as the earliest of its kind in Europe, with historian Will Durant calling the Minoans the first link in the European chain.
The Minoan civilization is particularly notable for its large and elaborate palaces, some of which were up to four stories high, featured elaborate plumbing systems and were decorated with frescoes. The most notable Minoan palace is that of Knossos, followed by that of Phaistos. The Minoan period saw extensive trade between Crete, Aegean and Mediterranean settlements, particularly the Near East. Through their traders and artists, the Minoans' cultural influence reached beyond Crete to the Cyclades, the Old Kingdom of Egypt, copper-bearing Cyprus, Canaan and the Levantine coast and Anatolia. Some of the best Minoan art is preserved in the city of Akrotiri on the island of Santorini, which was destroyed by the Minoan eruption.

Cult of Zeus found in Metropolis
A cult area built for Zeus, the main god of the ancient Helen mythology, has been found in the ancient city of Metropolis, located in Aegean İzmir province’s Torbalı district.
According to a statement made by the Sabancı Foundation, this year’s excavations, carried out by the foundation in collaboration with the Culture and Tourism Ministry, have been completed in the ancient city.
Pieces of columns, which indicate the area was a center of worship, a piece of an altar and a sculpture pedestal have been discovered in the excavation. Detailed examinations made by the excavation teams revealed the region was a cult area dedicated to Zeus.
The excavations also revealed that the main god Zeus was mentioned with the title “Krezimos” in the ancient city of Metropolis for the first time anywhere in the world.
It is believed that Krezimos means “protective Zeus who brings abundance and wealth to Metropolis” since Krezimos, which is a unique title to Metropolis, is similar to the word “crescere,” meaning “to grow” or “cultivate” in Latin.
According to archaeologists, worshipping Zeus Krezimos started in the 2nd century B.C. and continued in the Roman era.
The statement quoted the head of the excavations in the ancient city of Metropolis, Manisa Celal Bayar University Associated Professor Serdar Aybek, as saying, “For the first time a religious area was discovered in the ancient city, where [only] social structures had been discovered so far. We have been following the traces of history in Metropolis for 25 years and this year we found very important data. Both inscriptions and architectural data proved the Zeus Krezimos culture existed only in the ancient city of Metropolis. Further excavations are very important to completely understand the cult area and its structure.”
Sabancı Foundation General Director Zerrin Koyunsağan said the ancient city was open to culture tourism and visitors this year.
The statement said the ancient city of Metropolis, which has been unearthed during excavations since 1990, is located between Torbalı’s Yeniköy and Özbey neighborhoods.
The history of the city date back from the Classical Age to the Hellenistic Age, Roman and Byzantine ages and the Ottoman era, the statement said, and continued:
“The excavations so far have unearthed a Hellenistic era theater, assembly building, portico, two Roman-era bathes, a complex of bath and sports field, a peristillium house, stores, a toilet and streets. Also, tens of thousands of findings including Hellenistic and Roman era ceramics, coins, glasses, architectural pieces and sculptures, have been discovered in the ancient city.”

İzmirde gezilecek yerler Teos Antik Kent - Dionysos & Agora Tapınağı
Kent Tarihi ; Antik coğrafyacı Strabon (MÖ 64 – MS 24), Teos’un önce Athamas, ki bu nedenle ünlü lirik şair Anakreon tarafından Athamantis olarak adlandırıldığını, sonra Ion kolonizasyonu döneminde Kodros’un gayri meşru oğlu Naoklos ve daha sonra Atinalı Apoikos ile Damasos ve Boiotialı Geres tarafından kurulduğunu bildirmektedir.
Antik kentte 1962 ile 1967 yılları arasında sürdürülen arkeolojik kazılar, Protogeometrik Dönem’den itibaren (MÖ 1000 civarı) kentte yerleşildiğini ortaya koymuştur. Yaklaşık MÖ 600 yıllarında Miletoslu filozof Thales’in, Ionia Bölgesi’nin merkezinde olmasından dolayı oniki Ion kentinin merkezi olarak Teos’u önermesine karşılık bu önerisi kabul görmemiştir. Teos kentinin MÖ 6. yüzyıldaki ticari ilişkileri Eski Mısır’a kadar takip edilebilmektedir. Tüm Anadolu’da olduğu gibi Teos da MÖ 545 yılından sonra Pers komutanı Harpagos’un eline geçmiştir. Teos’un da içinde yer aldığı oniki kentten oluşan Ion Birliği’nin, Pers Kralı II. Kyros’un Batı Anadolu’daki Eski Yunan şehirleri üzerindeki baskısını kıramaması sonucu, birçok Teoslu MÖ 543 yılında kenti terk etmiş ve Trakya Bölgesi’ndeki Nestos deltasında Abdera (günümüzde Avdera, İskeçe yakını) kentini kurmuştur. Teoslular, Abdera’nın dışında MÖ 544 civarında Taman Yarımadası’ndaki (Kırım) Phanagoria kentini de kurmuşlardır. Bununla beraber zamanla birçok kolonist Teos'a geri dönmüştür. Kentin refah seviyesi o denli artmıştır ki MÖ 494 yılındaki Lade Deniz Savaşı’na Teoslular 17 gemiyle destek vermiştir. Birinci Attika-Delos Deniz Birliği’ne üye olan kent, bu birliğe Erythrai (Ildırı) gibi yıllık altı talent vergi ödemiştir.
Seferihisar’da ele geçen uzun bir yazıttan da öğrenildiği üzere, MÖ 304 yılında meydana gelen ve tüm Ionia Bölgesi’nde zarara yol açan deprem sonrasında kentin Antigonos Monophthalmos tarafından komşu kent Lebedos (Ürkmez) ile birleştirilmesi (synoikismos) planlansa da bu plan uygulanamamıştır.
I. Attalos Dönemi’nde (MÖ 241-197) Pergamon Krallığı’na bağlanan Teos, III. Attalos Dönemi’nde ( MÖ 138-133) kralın topraklarını vasiyet yoluyla Roma’ya bırakmasıyla Roma egemenliği altına girmiştir. Kent, MÖ 129 yılından itibaren Roma’nın Asia Eyaleti sınırları içerisinde yer alır. Kent genelinde ele geçen mimari yapıların çeşitliliği kentin Roma İmparatorluk Dönemi’nde de önemini devam ettirdiğini göstermektedir. Augustus Dönemi’nde darp edilen sikkelerin üzerinde imparatorun ktistes olarak gösterilmesi ve büstünün tapınak içerisinde gösterilmesi kentte Augustus kültüne işaret etmektedir. Ayrıca yeni dönem kazılarında Dionysos kutsal alanına ana girişi sağlayan bir propylon’un ve tapınağı çevreleyen stoa’ların Augustus Dönemi’nde yapılmış olduğu anlaşılmaktadır. Bu dönemden sonra Roma ile iyi ilişkiler içerisinde bulunan kentin II. Valerianus Dönemi’ne kadar sikke darp ettiği bilinmektedir. Geç Antik Dönem’e ilişkin pek fazla somut veri bulunmasa da kentin önemini kaybetmekle birlikte varlığını Orta Çağ'a kadar küçük çapta devam ettirdiği anlaşılmaktadır.
Dionysos kültünün kent ve çevresindeki önemi nedeniyle MÖ 3. yüzyılda, şair, müzisyen, tiyatrocu ve şarkıcılardan oluşan Dionysos Sanatçılar Birliği Teos’ta kurulmuştur. Bir süre sonra kentte huzursuzluk kaynağı olarak görülen bu topluluk önce Ephesos’a (Selçuk), ardından Myonnessos’a (Doğanbey / Çıfıtkale), son olarak da Lebedos’a (Ürkmez) gönderilmiştir. Şairler Anakreon, Antimakhos, Epikuros, Nausiphanes, Apellikon ve tarihçi Hekataios Teos’ta yaşamış antik çağın önemli filozof ve sanatçılarındandır.

İzmir'in Seferihisar İlçesi'ne 5 kilometre uzaklıktaki Sığacık Köyü'nün bir kilometre güneyinde deniz kenarında bulunan Teos'un M.Ö. 1000 yıllarında İon kolonisi olarak kurulmuştur. Kurucusu Dioysos'un oğlu Athames olarak bilinir.
Teos antik kenti çok erken bir dönemde coğrafik konumundan dolayı büyük bir ticari önem kazanmıştır. M.Ö. 6. yüzyılda bu önemli ticari ilişkilerin izleri, Eski Mısır’a kadar takip edilebilmektedir. Kent, ticari amaçla Nil Deltası’nda yer alan Naukratis kentinin kurulmasında rol oynamıştır.
Ancient City of Teos
Teos was an ancient Greek city on the coast of Ionia, on a peninsula between
Chytrium and Myonnesus. It was founded by Minyans from Orchomenus,
Ionians and Boeotians, but the date of its foundation is unknown. Teos was
one of the twelve cities which formed the Ionian League. The city was situated
on a low hilly isthmus. Its ruins are located to the south of the modern town
Sığacık in the Seferihisar district of Izmir Province, Turkey. The modern village
of Sığacık is situated close to the ruins of Teos. The interior of what was
previously the city has now been intensively farmed, which makes it difficult to
excavate the site. Through ploughing, pottery has been brought to the surface
of the earth, which has been collected through archaeological survey.
