This half-day guided tour to Izmir begins with the 4th century Castle of Alexander the Great built on Pagos Hill overlooking the city. Nearby, is the well preserved Roman market place, the Agora. This has become the Agora Open-Air Museum of Izmir holding many historical artifacts. The symbol of Izmir is a beautifully carved marble Clock Tower which stands in the centre of Konak Square. It has four fountains round it and is about 113 years old. You will then be taken round the bay to Karsiyaka, a residential area before crossing the bay by ferry boat to see Kemeralti, the old Bazaar built by the Ottomans.
The largest Turkish seaport after Istanbul, its exports include cotton, tobacco, vegetables, manufactures, and carpets. The city suffered greatly from severe earthquakes in 1928 and 1939. It is a NATO command center for SE Europe. It is also the site of the Aegean Univ. and several museums, and was probably the birthplace of the poet Homer.
