Izmir is one of the Seven Churches and part of Jewish Heritage
Upon meeting at the port or your hotel (Izmir or Kusadasi), we will drive to Konak square where the heart of Izmir beats (clock tower and mosque). We then proceed to the elevator (built in 1907), another landmark of the city located on the Izmir-born "Dario Moreno" street.
We then continue to the ancient agora where we will discover not only antique shops but also monumental tombs. From there on to the archaeological museum (3 sections : statues, jewelry, mosaics)
To end this day, we will take the boat to Karşıyaka (Cordeliea) ie "the opposite side" where will taste Turkish grills ("Döner Kebap"), enjoy some free time in the bazaar before return to the port or hotel.
