Amazing and a must see museum when visiting Selçuk. The layout is perfect, great details and…read morewritten guidance n English (and Turkish). So incredible to think just how old these artifacts are from Ephesus! Cost in October 2023 was 220t. Definitely worth it. We had a nice quiet day. No other guests so we could wander at our leisure.

I recommend to spend time at the cafetearías near by to enjoy the atmosphere around the city. Stop by the staircases to take photos.

This is a very very hard place to get to. We literally had to walk from the neighborhood above the…read moreelevator for about half an hour. If you have vertigo, then don't come from above, because those staircases etched into the hillside can get very steep. Even though google maps might say the walk from the Üçyol Metro station is only 8 minutes, the streets are wind a lot. We even had a few of our Turkish friends come with us, and we had to ask locals a few times which specific streets to take. And take the metro to Üçyol station, not the Konak station. The Konak station is below Asansor, but it is going to be a far walk in the sun. At least when you get off the Üçyol station, you really get to see a more local, almost untouched view (sans tourists) of Izmir that you can't really see near the water. The views are worth it though. I do not think my experience in Izmir would have been complete had I not come to Asansor.

Coins, statues, and pottery are all fantastic to walk around a take in. There are descriptions in English and Turkish, but not a ton of information on the actual items - what they were meant for, used for, or created for to give you more history and substance to your visit. It reminded me of exhibits you'll see while at university. Those that live in the halls of the research department and walk past every day. Same look and feel here. It was completely deserted while I was there, save for the entrance person. The lights for the exhibits come on when you enter the area, which is a bit eerie at first. The statues are the most impressive and you are able to see them up close and personal. Worth a stop if you are walking around the culture park and have 30 minutes and 5TL to spare.
