One will feel small and in awe of the megalithic architecture here when walking on marble floors, surrounded by huge structures. The 'Holy City' Hierapolis, where gods might have once walked... Some of them are in ruins, some in tact. The energy is definitely an exciting step back in time!

Would you believe this was once one of the 7 wonders of the ancient world \u200d️ Today it's really more of a turtle sanctuary The sign posted up next to these columns talked about how this temple was once fantastically huge buuuuuut now it's just a few columns and a ancient mosaic floor (covered in water from the recent rains) I would imagine this puddle of water is here most of the year because there's a huge turtle population hanging out doing turtle stuff. Even a few gease were hanging out here that my favorite street dog named 305 decided to chase down and give them them the scare of a lifetime hahaha Crazy to me that these ruins are just in the backyards of random Turkish people's houses. Astonishing really

Sadly not much remains of this ancient wonder of the world but it is kind of magic to think about the magnitude of the temple once standing there. There is no entrance fee so you must stop and have a look if you are in the area. You can get there easily by walking in 10 min from the Archeological Museum.

An historical location dating back to ancient times where cities rose and fell and power was the main stay. Gives the opportunity to feel the livestyle and architectural mindset of old.

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.

Amazing ancient place as expected from seven wonders of the world

Drive in, free of charge. Imagination is needed but you do get a sense of wonderment and mysticism about the site. Worth it to tick an ancient world wonder off the list. Quick 15 min visit before the mighty Ephesus!

People down rating it because there's not much left. It is only a little bit old, you'll have to forgive aging and time for doing their job. Can definitely appreciate that once the temple of Artemis stood here, one if the 7 ancient wonders of the world. You can feel the presence.
