Miletus Ancient City

Excellent historical site to visit. The theatre is well preserved. This location was not very busy with tourists and is cheaper too. Definitely a place to visit and see the port (now filled-in with silt from the river) where Paul departed to Jerusalem - Acts 20:36-38.

My recommendation!!!!!
It’s beautiful place with big history, good atmosphere, nice and clean, silence

Wonderful experience. We were at Efesus two days ago. This is also a wonderful place to see. This city must have been very big. We were almost alone, its off the beaten track.

One of the must visit places in Turkey which still not discovered largely. It has a beautifully kept theatre with secret tunnels. It has Greek, Roman and Seljuk additions. The ancient village at the back of the theatre is also impressive. The museum is also really good.

To me this is a highly underrated area in comparison to some of the more popular archaeological sites around Turkey. This site gets little attention but is really quite impressive. Nothing is off limits to explore which is nice so you can really go anywhere! The theater is amazing in itself but also take time to explore the rest of the complex as it’s quite large and really nice to discover!

This was amazing to visit. The theater welcomes you to the site and behind is full of surprises. The baths of Faustina, St. Michael's church and a beautiful mosque also. The beauty in Turkey is astounding. Definitely worth going to see these ruins and visit Turkey!

Absolutely incredible place. Theater is a great place to stay and discover corridors. Later you can go doe to scenario. The rest of the city is very good, but be sure you don’t miss baths and the corner of the city, they look very impressive and you can realize how big they were!!!

If water level is high enough, you can put your feet in it to calm down them and get involves in Roman/Greek atmosphere.

One of the most ancient city, theatre is good condition but others not 😕

Ancient theater in Milet is in a very well preserved condition, its sizes are just tremendous! Around the theater there are also remains of Greak ancient city of Milet, former sea port, including city council, public swimming pools with cold, warm and hot water. The swimming pools used as a place for socializing were equipped with water pipelines.
This place is really worth visiting👌!After seeing the theater try orange juice made in the nearest cafe by locals with the help of rustic press, it's delicious!!!🍊

A good ancient Roman outdoor museum. The amphitheatre is great, especially with the stairs and hallways. It takes a while to walk around the different buildings, but it is worth the walk. Take water, use suncream and cover your head in sunny weather.

It has one of the best theater I’ve seen so far. Giant doorways are amazing. We expected to find a small ruin but the size of the place really surprised us. Entrance was 40lira and free for museum card holders. There are a few small cafes around if you want to drink or snack something

Must see. Fantastic theatre. The ruins are spread out over a wide space. Don’t forget to use the tickets to visit the museum

One of the greatest ancient remains in Aegean region Turkey. Behind the theater is shockingly well-preserved. Worth visiting for sure!

I loved the theater which is really well preserved and at what point could accommodate more than 25,000 expectators.
Easy walk, and offer great angles for Great pictures.

This is a majestic theater with many intact main elements. The seats are nearly original, this is a must see building with many aspects. And when you are arriving to Miletus, it welcomes you first.

The incredible scale of the theater, which has survived to this day, demonstrates all the greatness of that era.

Beautiful place. Quite large (behind the amphitheater the city continues). I recommend visiting. Getting there is quite easy from the city of Didim.

Crazy huge amphitheater with a phenomenal sunset 🌅😎👌

Y'all know I'm seriously a sucker for a good sunset! Whatever was in the air on this particular evening overlooking this ancient amphitheater and associated ruins really was something special 🎉🎉🎉

I love this particular amphitheater because not only is it large and in charge buuuut also there's no one around for miles! Except of course for the random Turkish shepherd with his goats and sheep grazing between the ruins. That adds a lil special little ambience to the whole scene 🐐🏚🐏

Getting to explore this entire set of ruins with the motorcycle is crazy fun! The boys and I were having an absolute ball checking out the ancient Roman bath house, the council house, and even a modern day mosque behind this amphitheater on our noble hogs 🛵💨🔥🇹🇷

On the way out of here with the sun in full technicolor mode we passed a small harbor full of ships which was absolutely beautiful with the colors of the sunset reflecting off the sea... It almost didn't look real... More like a painting or a postcard but in real life 🤯🎨🌞

Amazing place! Such an important city for more than 1.500 years sleeps covered by the grounds of the Menderes River. Loving remains of the Lion Harbour

I go to Miletus several times a year but this time I had the very nice surprise that the site had been drained and cleaned in front of the South Agora.
Of course, some mysteries have now somewhat disappeared, but the result gives us a better understanding of the imposing edifice.
Miletus is a place as magical as ever to see, to see again or just to discover.
