Izmir

City

Overview

Once the ancient city of Smyrna, founded by Alexander the Great, modern Izmir is a vibrant city set along a wide bay. The seafront promenade, or Kordon, is lined with popular restaurants serving fresh seafood, and the city is well-placed for visiting some of the region’s great classical sites including the ruins of Pergamon and Ephesus.
