A story is being told.

Ephesus was not particularly crowded whan we were there.

One nich thing about this site is that one can wander freely.

People walking down the [original] processional street. There are still ruts from carts/chariots in the street.

Celsus Library

There are statues in niches on both levels of the front of the Library

Looking back at the Library from the agora

Looking at part of Ephesus from the steps of the theatre.

The theatre was built in the 3rd century B.C. It could hold 25,000 people.

I wonder why the purple vegetation seems to be in a line.

We were able to visit the terrace houses. The are protected by this permanent structure.

A plan of the terrance house area.

Dr. Hilke Thür, of the Austrian Archaeological Institute, was our guide and supplemented the extensive information provided by teh signs.

The translucent cover allows a lot of light.

"Puzzle" understates the difficulty of the work being done here.

The tables are covered with small pieces that will ultimately be put into order.
