The Secrets of Ephesus in Turkey ~ Travel Photography πŸ“·

avatar

Way back in time to around 500 BC there existed a civilisation living in the spectacular countryside of Turkey ~ A place known as Ephesus, which can still be visited even today.

So I would like to share some of my many photos of the "Ruins of Ephesus" that I have not posted in a long time. They are all from a once discovered Greek and Roman culture. This is the most amazing place to visit deep in the beautiful green Turkish countryside. Please enjoy my photos of a once complete Ancient City.

All Photos below were shot with my Sony DSC-W17 Camera πŸ“·

If you are shown around by a local tour guide, you will no doubt be taken to the remains of the Hospital building. The Stone carved Tablets just outside it denoted that you had arrived at a Hospital. If you look closely at the photograph below (taken by me) you will notice the very familiar snake design (known as "God Asclepios") that is still used today. Fascinating that this exact same symbolism dates back that far in our Medical History. The other photo that I shot in the ruins of Ephesus in Turkey depicts an ancient "sign post" of a Roman style Chemist Shop (which to me also looks very familiar in it's design).

I am not a professional photographer, but ALL the photos above are of my own work & therefore these photos are owned by me πŸ‘ Most of this publication is "Text Edited" from my earlier Steemit Articles a long time ago.

Many Thanks for viewing my latest Article πŸ‘
Bye for now, See you all again very soon... πŸ‘‹
