Efeso fa rivivere il passato. Questo tour combina l'antica città con una visita a una tipica fabbrica di ceramiche per dare un'occhiata alla produzione tradizionale di ceramica. Per prima cosa, rivivrete i giorni di gloria dell'Impero Romano esplorando i monumenti di Efeso durante una visita guidata. Gökhan, una delle nostre esperte guide locali, dice: "Il sito archeologico è così ben conservato che è facile immaginare di camminare sulle orme delle folle vestite di toga che si radunavano e chiacchieravano nelle strade 2.000 anni fa".
Ricca di templi, reliquie e statue religiose, percorrerete le strade di marmo mentre la vostra guida vi illustrerà la loro storia. L'attrazione principale è la Biblioteca di Celso, un capolavoro di architettura classica che un tempo ospitava i più brillanti studiosi dell'epoca e oltre 12.000 rotoli di saggezza millenaria. Passeggiando tra i viali fiancheggiati da colonne, sbircerete nei negozi e nelle case sgualcite per arrivare al Gran Teatro, un anfiteatro colossale dove un tempo predicava San Paolo.
Concluderemo il viaggio con una visita a una fabbrica di ceramiche per vedere come si produce la ceramica turca. Ammirate la precisione del maestro ceramista, che lavora solo ad occhio, mentre decora e dipinge i pezzi tradizionali. È uno dei posti migliori per acquistare souvenir autentici e sostenere i mezzi di sussistenza locali. Gökhan aggiunge: "Le ceramiche Çini sono una forma d'arte tradizionale turca. Cercate i motivi popolari del tulipano e del garofano: il tulipano simboleggia l'unità di Dio, mentre il garofano rappresenta la natura e il rinnovamento".

TANTUR TURIZM SEYAHAT A.S
A natural masterpiece combines with ancient ruins for this full day tour. You'll head to Pamukkale – which means 'cotton castle' in Turkish – as well as the adjacent city of Hierapolis. Both are UNESCO-listed, so it's a two-for-one deal on Turkey's historical gems. Muzaffer, one of our local guides, says, ‘Pamukkale is like something out of a fairytale – a spectacle of terraces formed over thousands of years that look like a cascading snowy waterfall. Legend has it, the hot thermal springs here have healing properties'.On arrival, you'll stop by the Pam Hotel for a spot of lunch, before we make our way to the main event. A sight to behold, Pamukkale's natural springs solidified into chalk-white stalactites and cliffs long ago, resulting in a winter-like wonderland of petrified tiers and pools. People have bathed here for thousands of years, including Roman emperors. Follow in their footsteps and bathe in one of the thermal pools or simply make your way to the top and drink in the magnificent views.Next up is the ancient spa town of Hierapolis. You'll have free time to explore its well-preserved ruins, including ancient streets, a 13,000-seat theatre and the thermal baths – known as Cleopatra's pool due to her reputation of eternal youth. A dip is extra but well worth forking out for the experience of bathing in an oasis scattered with Roman artefacts. What's more, for every sale of this experience, there's a donation to CYDD, a charity that helps in the education of underprivileged children in Turkey.
