Ephesus

Turkey
From all of my travels Ephesus was (and still is) one of the most spectacular places I've ever been to or seen, particularly when you consider when the city was founded and the ruins remain in such an astounding condition.
The following is a small part of an article I found on the internet that was written by Joshua J.Mark who explains it much better than I can The entire article can be found at https://www.ancient.eu/ephesos/
"The city was founded for the second time by the Ionian Androclus, son of Codrus, and the cities that were established after the Ionian migrations joined in a confederacy under the leadership of the city of Ephesus. The region was devastated during the Cimmerian invasion at the beginning of the 7th century BCE but, under the rule of the Lydian kings, Ephesus became one of the wealthiest cities in the Mediterranean world. Ephesus was a center of learning and the birthplace and home of the great Pre-Socratic philosopher Heraclitus. Women enjoyed rights and privileges equal to men and there are records of female artists, sculptors, painters and teachers. At night the streets of the city were brightly lit with oil lamps, a luxury not many cities could afford. Under the rule of King Croesus of Lydia construction of the great Temple of Artemis at Ephesus was begun"
