The view southwards toward Samsun Daği (the Greek Mount Mykele) on the Dilek Peninsula (left). The countryside, coast and beaches from Kuşadası to the Dilek Peninsula - Büyük Menderes Delta National Park (Dilek Yarımadası Milli Parkı, known locally as Milli Parkı) are famed for being the most beautiful in Ionia. On the other side of the mountain is also the ancient city of Priene.
From Kuşadası it is easy to take day trips to a number of fascinating historical sites, for example Ephesus, Priene, Miletus and Dydima. See Ionian spring, a 3-part photo essay about Ionia at The Cheshire Cat Blog. |
