Odeon - Council Chamber

Today the highlight was a visit to Ephesus. Ephesus was the fourth largest city of the ancient world. 

It was great to walk on paths that Paul would have walked as he spent three years here teaching and evangelising.

The part that's been excavated so far is huge but there's probably twice as much again waiting to be discovered.

Ephesus Theatre

The theatre mentioned in Acts 19 where Demetrius and the silversmiths led a riot against Paul held 24000 people.

Of course it's a great tourist attraction and a destination for countless cruise ships so we were surrounded by literally thousands of people.
