I've heard a lot of good things about Kusadasi and the ruins at Ephesus.

Does anyone have any information about the port? Has anyone been to Ephesus? Do you have pictures to share? I've heard that the museum that houses the majority of the artifacts is not to be missed, is this true? Have you been to the house of the Virgin Mary? What else is there to do there?

YES I HAVE IN EPHESUS MORE THAN 5000 TIMES.
THe SITES ARE THE ROMAN SITE OF EPHESUS WITH ITS SPLENDID RUINS
INCLUDING THE THEATRE WHERE APOSTLE PAUL PREACHED.
TERRACE HOUSES ARE NEWADDITION TO THE SITE WITH ITS SPLENDID WALL PAINTINGS.

THis is not definate.The toilets were actually joined to Baths of Scholastica and they were used for women when baths were used for woman and for man seperately when the baths were used by man.
Also in terrace houses across there are toilets in common used by women togerther.

As far asI I beleive women did not go to the bushes.
and if you here any guide telling they were sending the slaves to warm the seats do not trust.
