Sightseeing

Located in Karataş, Nesim Levi who was a Jewish businessperson living in Izmir, had this structure built in 1907 so as to provide people with a mechanism to climb up (155 steps stair) Halil Rıfat Paşa Street from Mithatpaşa Street. There is a charming old street called Dario Moreno at the bottom entrance of the Elevator with lots of stylishly designed cafes and bars.

Seaside Promenade

Kordon is the best place to watch sunset in Izmir. It is about 5-6 kms sea front-coastline- beginning from Konak Pier (Pasaport Area) to Alsancak train station. Perfect place to grab a beer or a cup of coffee, sit on the grass and just chillax.

Food scene

İzmir is famous for its delicious pastery called 'Boyoz'. Locals love it and it is mostly preferred on breakfasts with a boiled egg and a cup of tea on side. You can find it almost in every bakery in the city but this one (Dostlar Bakery) is the best you can have it from :)

İzmir is also famous for its dessert called 'Bomba'. The dessert has a crunchy dough layer on the outside and a fluid chocolate cream filling on the inside. The best place to taste it is Çelebi Bakery. Give it a try :)

Agora, located in the Basmane district in the city center, dates back to the 2nd century AD and belongs to the Roman Period. Most of the ruins of Agora which was established in the 4th century B.C. after the big earthquake in 178 B.C by the support of Emperor Marcus Aurelius belong to Roman Period agora. The agora in Smyrna is a structure which was planned in the form of a rectangle and which is surrounded by columned galleries (stoa) with a large courtyard in the center. Revealed during the excavations, the northern and the western stoas ascend on the basement floor. Examined in terms of its plan features, the northern stoa is found out to be a basilica.
