Kusadasi,
which means "bird island", is set in a superb gulf in the Aegean region
of Turkey and is known for its turquoise sparkling water, broad sandy
beaches, bright sun and large marina with a capacity for 600 boats. A
glorious ancient city stands beside it, Ephesus with hundreds of
thousands of visitors from tours each year. The town is not far from
Adnan Menderes Airport, Izmir (only 80 km). Numerous holiday villages
and hotels line its shores and hundreds of restaurants serves food from
all around the world and, of course, Turkish Cuisine, which is one of
the largest cuisines of the world. We mustn't forget discos, bars, cafe
pubs and "Turkish Nights"; all those to cater holiday-makers. Kusadasi has retained a certain earthiness to it and inexpensive meals and pensions can still be found in town. Many shops do a brisk trade with passengers from hundreds of cruise ships that dock for a day or two, allowing enough time for a trip to Ephesus and a shopping expedition. |
