What to see
Visual stories take you through daily life, trade, art and building in Ephesus at its height, from the city's legendary founder Androklos to Cleopatra and Mark Antony, and from the goddess Artemis to Saint Paul; you "walk" inside the Temple of Artemis, along the Arcadian Way and into the Terrace Houses. It works well before or after walking the ruins.
Forty-five minutes to an hour. The Ministry page lists an audio guide service.
For foreign visitors entry is included in the Ephesus ancient city ticket — keep your ticket.
