Nothing is really left from Artemis Temple, except this beautiful column where a Pelican has chosen to build its nest on the top. The site is majestueuse, mainly because of the beautiful Selcuk castle behind. In my opinion 15-20 minutes will give you a good impression.

Don't have Great Expectations for this. It is nothing short of disappointing. Once an wonder of the world, now in ruins. Neglected and discarded. Possibly because of lack of funding or help. Place is littered with touts who are exploiting the tourists. Out of all the columns and structure, only one is standing and that too has a bird's nest on top.

Beautiful ruins of the temple of Artemis. A world heritage site. No tickets. 15-30 mins of time needed to see the place. If you are into Greek mythology then this is a must see place!

One of the wonders of the ancient world, nothing really left but one column. Once upon a time there was a 162 column building which must have been incredible… but over the years it was systematically pulled apart to use for churches, castles and in museums. This is all that remains

One of the wonders of the world! Really worth to visit, especially having in mind the price of 130 tl (oct 2023) for seeing ruins of temples, church and forth during one visit. Don't hesitate to walk everywhere and discover more to find hidden jems, such as: vine/olive oil jars, holly paints, Islamic tombstone, water cistern, etc

(Translated by Google) The Temple of Artemis is located in Ephesus, in the Selçuk district of our country, Izmir. The Temple of Artemis, a structure dedicated to the Goddess Artemis, also known as the Temple of Diana, has a magnificent stance. Completed in 550 BC, the work still hosts thousands of local and foreign tourists every year. (Original) Artemis Tapınağı ülkemizin İzmir ilinin Selçuk ilçesi sınırlarında ki Efes'te bulunmaktadır. Diana Tapınağı olarak da bilinen Tanrıça Artemis'e ithaf edilmiş bir yapı olan Artemis Tapınağı oldukça görkemli bir duruşa sahiptir. Milattan önce 550 yılında tamamlanmış olan eser bugün bile her yıl yerli yabancı binlerce turisti ağırlamaktadır.

Without a guide to tell me the history and demarcate the area for me, I would be totally lost. Yes the outline of the area is still visible and parts of some columns remain. It’s a short quick visit of about 15 mins max. Lots of peddlers selling guide books and “gold coins”.

The Temple of Artemis at Ephesus, Turkey, lies in ruins. But the site, which was one of the most important Greek cities in Asia Minor, deserves its place on this list. Be sure to take the time to admire the Library of Celsus, whose majestic columns have stood the test of time.

Note that during winter it closes at 5:30pm.

One of the ancient world wonders. Although few ruins left, but the place has its own magic. You can feel what it was. There are many people trying to see you something there, just ignore that! You can visit the place easily without tour from Selçuk.

Hopefully your tour guide can help you see how these structures looked a thousand years ago. Ours (Sammy), was great at helping us see these ruin for what they are. Priceless treasures, apparently most have yet to be unearthed.

Unfortunately there are a few stones left of the great temple of Artemis. Although it definitely worths a stop and taking time, don't get your hopes up to see much. I really liked smoothly touching the stones from thousands years ago.

There is not a great deal to see here which undersells it's historic importance. Better to have the lowdown from a tour guide so you can appreciate what you are seeing. Beware of street traders who are desperate to sell their guidebooks or handmade wooden instruments. Luckily when this lady says no they know she really means no! 😉

The Temple of Artemis is a temple of the hunting goddess Artemis, also known as the Temple of Diana, built from marble by the architect Chersiphron and his son Metagenes, 377 feet (115 m) long, 180 feet (55 m) wide, consists of 127 stone pillars, in Ephesus city (now in Turkey), on the Aegean coast. Construction of the temple began in 550 BC, underwent reconstruction and expansion over several periods, the last being in 430 BC after 120 years. In 356 BC, the temple was destroyed by fire on the night Alexander the Great was born. A similar temple was rebuilt on the site of the old temple. In 262, the Goths burned the temple for the second time. Only the foundation and some other parts of the second temple have survived to this day. The British Museum in London also preserves a number of relics belonging to the second temple.

Artemis Temple You and only one pillar remain. Only the pillars remain, so I don't feel the scale or grandeur of the time, but since 127 pillars were used, I was able to roughly guess the size. At a nearby museum, you can see a replica restored in miniature size.

There is not much remained of this site. Although it's so near to the center, the location was not crowded and there was so peaceful. It could be reached easily by walking and there is no entrance, so you can visit it for free. Just be careful as there is no W.C and no bench or shadows to rest under!

Kinda sad this is an afterthought next to the Ephesus museum. It's down a nature trail so I guess no entry fee is ok. Several stones still left and one still standing. Another area that isn't well detailed in here as well. There's a sign showing what was here but not much else.

It means a lot for people who are interested about the seven wonders of the world. What is left here is only ruins but if you are on your way to visit şirince village then don’t miss it.

Well, one of the seven wonders of the ancient world. So it's a must, but there's not much left. Everything seems a little unkempt. Admission is free.

Amazing experience, and it's a must if you ever get chance to visit Ephesus, I was blown away - magical

This park/museum is a very large complex with multiple structures, it requires at least 5 hours to see everything at a normal pace. The complex is magnificent showcasing beautiful art and structures from the periods as well as the remains of the Church of Virgin Mary. Very well worth trip. You should go!

Very little remains of what was once an wonderful marvel of the world! Worth a quick visit before heading to the ancient city.

An amazing place. The Temple of Artemis or Artemision, also known as the Temple of Diana, was a Greek temple dedicated to an ancient, local form of the goddess Artemis. It was located in Ephesus. By 401 AD it had been ruined or destroyed. Only foundations and fragments of the last temple remain at the site.

This is close to the other local attractions and a quick stop off is easy here. Large car park and walkable distance to the far caste in the background. Recommend seeing this before you go to Ephesus.

Amazing historical site. Remainings of one of 7 Wonders of the Ancient World. It just sad that it is all that remained.

While there isn't much left to see, you can easily see how huge this temple was. You also have great views of St John's Basılınca and the castle from here.

I would be happy to see this Holy Place rebuilt.

One of the old miracles! Unforgettable place

Sadly, if you want to have an idea of the original beauty of this site, you should watch its reconstructed model at the museum... if you're already not a fan of old stones, maybe pass your way. But it's still an interesting site for its symbolic and historical importance.

Honestly, incredibly disappointing BUT I already knew what to expect. What was once One Of The 7 Ancient Wonders Of The World has been reduced to a single massive column. I have seen artistic depictions of what it could have looked like. There's just nothing really here to see.

It is a shame and sad that such legendary structure is now being drown in swampland and only several stones (and one mixed "complete" pillar) are left uncovered. Anyway, you can have a very nice walk around the place here, have some rest and so on. It is also very interesting to just think about how many different people from various cultures and ages have been here since the temple was built... I recommend visiting this place when you are around.

Completely worth canceling our flight from Alacati to Istanbul. One of the seven wonders of the ancient world is worth witnessing. Delay a day to travel elsewhere in Turkey but don't miss this.

(Translated by Google) When I went to visit the Temple of Artemis, one of the 7 wonders of the ancient world, I expected a completely different scene. What I saw deeply disappointed me. Namely, neither the approach to the site, nor the site itself and the condition in which it is located deserve a single star. However, the knowledge that there used to be a magnificent temple in that place determined me to give it all 5 stars. The whole site is located on wetlands, overgrown with grass and vegetation. Apparently, no one made an effort to restore this historically extremely important locality, at least to some extent, to its old glory. Of the entire temple, only one pillar remained and several bases of pillars submerged in wetlands. I couldn’t shake the nagging impression after the tour was over. Maybe one day someone will understand what kind of wealth it is, so they will make an effort to settle all this and bring it to the condition that such a locality undoubtedly deserves. Until then, it remains to be known that this place once had a magnificent temple of the goddess Artemis, one of the 7 wonders of the ancient world. (Original) Pošavši da obiđem Artemidin hram, jedno od 7 svetskih čuda antičkog sveta, očekivao sam sasvim drugačiji prizor. Ono sto sam video duboko me je razolaralo. Naime, ni prilaz lokalitetu, ni sam lokalitet i stanje u kome se nalazi ne zaslužuju ni jednu zvezdicu. Međutim, saznanje da se bas na tom mestu nekada nalazio velelepni hram me je opredelilo da mu dam svih 5 zvezdica. Čitav lokalitet se nalazi na močvarnom tlu, zarastao u travu i rastinje. Očigledno se niko nije potrudio da ovom istorijski izuzetno značajnom lokalitetu bar donekle vrati stari sjaj. Od čitavog hrama ostao je samo jedan stub i nekoliko baza stubova potopljenih u močvarno zemljište. Nisam mogao da se otmem mučnom utisku nakon završenog obilaska. Možda će neko nekada shvatiti o kakvom se bogatstvu radi, pa ce uloziti napor da sve ovo sredi i dovede u stanje koje ovakav jedan lokalitet nesumnjivo zasluzuje. A do tada ostaje da se zna da je na ovom mestu nekada postojao velelepni hram boginje Artemide, jedan od 7 svetskih čuda antičkog sveta.

Definitely not worth visiting. All the good reviews for Artemis are NOT taking about this place. They are referring to nearby Ephesus. It may have been wonderous at some point in history but it is virtually NOTHING now. I am 100% sure you will decide it wasn't worth the stop. Maybe someday if they do *any* restoration/excavation it would be something to look at but not now. Ephesus (5 minutes drive), on the other hand, is magnificent.

Much of the site is below the ground in order to preserve the remains. The information boards on site are well done. Only a few standing relics are visible. We'll worth a visit.

One of the 7 wonder of ancient world. It is nice to see this place

One of the ancient wonders and it is very impressive to admire!! I visited here once and I'd definitely recommend it! Plus there is a nearby museum to admire the history and culture associated with the ruins. The sheer scale is amazing. (Great for photos too) There are occasional wild cats that roam the area, do not feed them. Also be careful of scam artists, since this is a hotspot for tourists.

Entrance is free. There is not much inside, most of the stones are exhibited in the Ephesus Archaeological Museum. If you do not have a car, I do not recommend you to walk there.

Logically quite crowded, but definitely worth a visit. It's a special feeling to walk on the streets that were created over 2000 years ago. Hafenstrasse ends in greenery, where the sea used to reach.

Nice place. It needs a little time to see everything. I didnt like men trying to sell me some guidance books.

Nothing left of the wonder but a pile of rubble and a column. No payment needed and there was ample parking. Went during the off season and there was virtually nobody except 2 men selling souvenirs (they are quite persistent salesmen too, they are there year round based on the chat I had with one of them)

Not much to see, basically just one pillar. Don't waste your time on it, especially after Ephesus

Don't expect much.. there is nothing to see just one pillar..

One of the seven ancient wonders of the world, but you have to use your imagination and the help of a knowledgeable guide as there's very little left standing. Still, from a guidebook , it was pretty impressive once.

DÜNYA BURAYA BOŞUNA GELMİYOR... Binlerce yıl öncede bir teknoloji vardı diyor insan !

This is without a doubt the most disappointing archaeological site in Turkey and they have many. Considered by those who saw it in ancient times to be better than the pyramids of Giza, better than Babylon and the Colossus of Rhodes we are now left with an arid swamp and a pieced together column. Extremely disappointing, worth stopping off to have a laugh about.

It is a shame that one of the wonders of the ancient world is somewhat neglected. Admission is free

It must have been great building during ancient world epoch. But you can't notice anything great nowadays. Disappointed

Went on a tour here as part of the Ephesus excursions in Kusadasi. Very informative, great history and interesting to learn about and see what it once looked like. A lot of sellers here targeting tourists, just say no and keep walking, you'll be grand.

You only can find the last part of Arthemis Temple so dont imagine it looks like as seen on your TV, hehehe But it has historical value, you can imagine that Hercules was there 😉

Absolutely should visit. The area is really big. Most of the buildings remain in good state. Would recommend. For Turkish people buy museum card before goin or else you have to pay 400₺ instead of 60₺ 👍

Not too exciting site…. No wonder, that there’s No entrance fee….

Unfortunately not much to see there. At least it's free, so you might as well go see what's left of one of the 7 wonders of the ancient world.

It's one of the seven ancient wonders of the world and it's free to visit so it's great to visit the site. But you have to accept that it is only ruins and the single standing column is not convincing. I still would not have missed it.

(Translated by Google) One of the seven wonders of the world, what can I say? (Original) Dünya'nın yedi harikasından birisi ne diyebilirimki harika

It is a must landmark to visit the goddess of Ephesus and fertility but you have to use your imagination

Nice to see one of the last ancient wonders of the world, even it's only a shade of its former glory

Ruins, with a central column, a graveyard of a fallen empire. Free to look around, worth a look when visiting Ephesus and Selçuc.

(Translated by Google) wonderful experience and incredible feeling to be in one of the 7 wonders of the world (Original) harika bir deneyim ve inanilmaz bir duygu dunyanin 7 harikasindan birinde olmak

Almost nothing left. Hard to even imagine what it used to be other than the size. It's free, so that should tell you something. But it was one of the 7 ancient wonders, so take a quick look.

And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent: Acts 17:30

(Translated by Google) A nice place! I can imagine what it looked like in the shadows of the times! (Original) Красивое место! Представляю как выглядело в тень времена!

(Translated by Google) It is a very important place for history, if only the state was in ruins. (Original) Tarih için çok önemli bir yer, harabe halinde keşke devlet el atsa.

(Translated by Google) Nothing particularly remarkable. There is only one column left, which symbolizes the place where the temple once was. I hope that there will be some kind of detailed reconstruction in order to more strongly immerse in the history of the place. Of course, it's worth a visit here, but it's more for show, to visit the place where one of the seven wonders of the ancient world was located. (Original) Ничего особо примечательного. Осталась лишь одна колона, которая и символизирует место, где когда-то был храм. Надеюсь, что будет какая-то подробная реконструкция, чтобы более сильно проникнуться историей места. Конечно, побывать здесь стоит, но это больше для галочки, чтобы побывать в месте, где находилось одно из семи чудес древнего мира.

There is nothing

(Translated by Google) Must be seen, (Original) Görülmesi gerekir,

(Original) Ancienne merveille du monde, aujourd'hui plus qu'un simple vestige et quelques ruines, donc pas grand chose à voir. Intéressant cependant pour les amateurs d'histoire.

(Translated by Google) I wish there was more (Original) Keşke daha çok sahip cikilsaydi

(Translated by Google) A lonely column, moreover, assembled from different pieces, is a sad sight. But it is still interesting to see the place where one of the wonders of the ancient world stood. The temple was mostly destroyed by earthquakes, and the vandalism was completed by Christians. Well, they did not understand that it was necessary to protect ancient Greek buildings. For those who want to see what the temple of Artemis looked like, I advise you to go to Didyma, to the temple of Apollo, the twin brother of the goddess. There you will really feel the scale and grandeur of pagan temples. The temples are said to have been identical. The four of us took a taxi Priene-Miletus-Didim. The temple in Didim impressed me the most. By the way, there lived Medusa the Gorgon, there is her statue. (Original) Одинокая колонна, причем, собранная из разных кусков, - печальное зрелище. Но все равно интересно увидеть место, где стояло одно из чудес древнего мира. Разрушили храм в большей степени землетрясения, а довершили вандализм христиане. Ну, не понимали они, что надо беречь древнегреческие постройки. Тем, кто хочет увидеть, как выглядел храм Артемиды, советую поехать в Дидим, в храм Аполлона, брата-близнеца богини. Вот там вы действительно ощутите масштабы и величие языческих храмов. Говорят, что храмы были идентичными. Мы вчетвером ездили на такси Приена-Милет-Дидим. Храм в Дидиме поразил больше всего. Там, кстати, проживала Медуза Горгона, есть ее изваяние.

(Translated by Google) Ephesus was a large city established by ancient Greeks in Asia Minor. At present, most of it is left in ruins. The ruins of Ephesus are a famous tourist spot in Turkey. Part of this once-famous city is today the Turkish town of Selcuk. Starting from the Roman Republic, Ephesus was the capital of Asia Minor (Western Asia Minor), known as "the first and largest metropolis in Asia. It was based on the Temple of Artemis (the chief shrine of the goddess Diana) , Library and theater. In addition, Ephesus built several different large bathrooms under Roman rule. The Virgin Mary died in Ephesus. The former residence of the Virgin Mary, 7 kilometers away from Selcuk, Catholic believes that Ephesus is the last home of the Virgin Mary, the mother of Jesus. Only part of the Ephesus site has been excavated so far. The part that has been excavated shows us the original prosperity of the city. The library has been reconstructed according to its original shape. The Temple of Artemis, one of the Seven Wonders of the World, only left some columns. Most of the art unearthed in the temple is in the British Museum. The annual Turkish Camel Wrestling Championship is held every winter in the arena of ancient Ephesus. (Original) 以弗所 是古希腊人在小亚细亚建立的一个大城市，当前大部分只剩废墟，以弗所废墟是土耳其一个著名的旅游点。这个曾经著名的城市有一部分今天成了土耳其小镇塞尔丘克。 从罗马共和国开始，以弗所就是亚细亚省（小亚细亚西部）的省会，被誉为"亚洲第一个和最大的大都会，它以亚底米神庙（女神狄安娜的首要神龛）、图书馆和戏院著称。另外，以弗所在罗马统治下还建造了几个不同的大浴室。 圣母玛利亚在以弗所终老其身。圣母玛利亚故居，离塞尔丘克7公里，天主教认为以弗所是耶稣之母圣母玛利亚最后的家。 以弗所遗址至今只挖掘了一部分。已经挖掘出的那部分向我们展现了该城原来的繁华。图书馆已经根据原来的造型重建。亚底米神庙，世界七大奇迹之一，只留下一些圆柱。神庙出土的大部分艺术品被收藏在大英博物馆。土耳其每年一度的骆驼摔跤冠军赛每年冬天在古代以弗所的竞技场举行。

Little remains of the once grand marvel of the world. One in the 70s built column of various drums stands alone, but the site breaths nostalgie and therefore worth visit especially as it's free and easily reachable (1km walk) from the city

(Translated by Google) Ephesus Artemis temple, one of the seven wonders of the world, has a few columns in the area today. It is close to the ancient city of Ephesus while you are visiting the area.

(Translated by Google) Perfection (Original) Mükemmeli otesi

(Translated by Google) Unfortunately, only a few columns remain and some ruins of a temple that centuries ago was of amazing beauty (so they say). However, the way in which we are trying to preserve what little remains is to be commended. Precisely because there is not much to see it is a place quite snubbed by the historical / cultural routes. But having time available I would recommend a visit as I did a few years ago with my family. Seeing the few surviving details, one can guess that the building was very well done and enhanced with elements of quality and beauty. (Original) Purtroppo rimangono solo poche colonne e qualche rudere di un tempio che secoli fa era di una bellezza stupefacente (così raccontano). È comunque da elogiare il modo in cui si sta cercando di preservare quel poco che resta. Appunto perché non c'è molto da vedere è un luogo abbastanza snobbato dai percorsi storico/culturali. Ma avendo a disposizione del tempo consiglierei una visita come qualche anno fa feci con i miei famigliari. Vedendo i pochi particolari sopravvissuti si può intuire che la costruzione era molto ben realizzata e valorizzata con elementi di qualità e bellezza.

Intriguing history behind the ruins... I always loved ancient Greek civilization so it was particularly interesting to me, but perhaps boring to those who don't share the interest for there is nothing but ruins of a temple there.

(Translated by Google) Temple of Artemis, also known as the Temple of Diana. The temple dedicated to the goddess Artemis was completed in Ephesus around 550 BC. The temple was built entirely of marble. Only a few pieces of marble remain from the temple, which is considered one of the seven wonders of the world. (Original) Artemis Tapınağı, aynı zamanda Diana Tapınağı olarak da bilinir. Tanrıça Artemis'e ithaf edilmiş tapınak Efes'te Milattan önce 550 yıllarında tamamlanmıştır.
