If you read my
previous post you'll recall I had just started to explore the ancient city of Ephesus and made it as far as the small theatre (Odeon) or
Bouleterion. Shall we move on?

That's a pretty impressive roadway isn't it? It leads us towards to main part of the city and takes us past the
Palace of Parliament and the
Temple of Domitian.

There were other important buildings along this road too, but these are currently being excavated.
As we turn the corner we pass the
Monumental Gateway of Memnius and enter
The Sacred Way.

We'll spend a little time along
The Sacred Way since it is an important area of Ephesus, but I will leave that for Part 3 of my visit to Ephesus blog.
