Visit the Ephesus Terrace Houses on this Archaeologous private guided shore excursion. Witness the amazing "ancient lifestyle of the rich and famous,” at the Ephesus Archaeological Site. You will be amazed at the similarity of these two and three story condominiums built in 100 B.C. and how modern architects have duplicated the architectural designs in modern times. Some things never change. They will impress you when you realize the grandeur of family life in the Roman period. The oldest building was used for 800 years,from 100 BC up until 700 AD.

Keep your eyes open for the beautiful mosaics on the floors and creative art frescos on the walls which are all safely protected under the new $11,000,000 special roofing. These ancient houses had cold and hot water AND a heating system that came through clay pipes beneath the floors and behind the walls!  Enjoy this wondrous well excavated museum.
