Odeon

it is 1,5 km walk , we hired a horse truck to get us at one site and we walked through the amazing place

Interesting historical place!
Must visit if you're into history! ;)

One of the first structures that welcomes you once you enter Ephesus Ancient city from the Upper Gate.

The ancient world has become even more exciting for me. Don't come to Turkey without seeing this place.

Moving place the History is awesome a well worth it visit.

Amazingly beautiful historical site to visit while you're in TÜRKIYE!

If you come through the lower gate this is the first main building you will come across right at the start. It's reasonably small but in a pretty good condition.

loved it . real real history . art and architecture combined

A historical location... Well preserved.

A great look at history.
1. Walking through ancient Ephesus, you can see man cool buildings and structures that you can rarely see somewhere else.
2. It is hard to imagine how this place used to be filled of people and full of life.
3. It sure is an interesting place to visit and it’s worth your time.

Historically and Biblically a must visit place! It's fascinating and fantastic walking around what is a living museum site.. scenery is nice and tour guide full of useful information. Highly recommend a visit to this place. Involved a lot of walking and in the blazing sun, need lots of water and a hat.

You can feel that ancient spirit in there. You should definetely come and see.

You must see this place...period. Make time, don’t mind the sea of people that you have to swim through... one of a kind.

It is very important to get there as early as possible to avoid rapidly increasing bus loads of tourists. One of the best historic archeological sites we have visited.

Magic of art in a historical place

wow! beautiful place

Amazing ancient city, a must see. Don't forget to bring hat and water if you are visiting around the summer season since it takes hours to explore the city under the sun.

Ephesus Turkey... ancient historical site.... absolutely amazing...
Enter from the high side of site as sections are steep...take your own water and use bathroom before you go in..
Wear comfortable non slip shoes, marble steps are very slippery.

Odeon was a small roofed theatre was also called the Bouleuterion. Odeon was constructed by Vedius Antonius and his wife around 2. century AD. It had a capacity of 1500 people. It had double function in use. First it was used as a Bouleuterion for the meetings of the Boulea or the Senate.
The second function was the Odeum as a concert hall for the performances. Today most of the building is not original as it was restored by Archaeology Team in 1960s.

A nice appetizer for the big amphitheater down in the city.
