About this ebook
Most travelers pass through Izmir only long enough to reach Ephesus. This audiobook is for the ones who stay. Behind the city's relaxed, palm-lined waterfront sits ancient Smyrna, a settlement so significant it once competed for the honor of being Homer's birthplace, and a hidden Roman marketplace quietly excavated beneath the modern city's own streets. Walk the marble main street of Ephesus itself, one of the best-preserved ancient cities anywhere in the Mediterranean. Listen your way through windsurfers cutting across Alaçatı's shallow turquoise bay, fruit wine in the stone-house village of Şirince, and the honest, sobering history of the 1922 fire that reshaped this cosmopolitan port forever — a history the city has learned to carry without losing its genuine, unhurried ease. Taste your way through Izmir köfte, kumru, and boyoz, and haggle in a centuries-old bazaar still run in places by the same families for generations.
Told in immersive second person, this is a listen made to feel like you're actually there — walking, tasting, and living Izmir the way its own residents do.
