Ancient Smyrna - the name Izmir bore in the ancient period - was founded by the Greeks in the 3rd millennium BC. e. For such a long time, the city managed to be under the rule of the Romans, Byzantines and Ottomans.
Now it is a multimillion-dollar metropolis with high-rise buildings, trendy bars, fish restaurants, shopping centers and a beautiful embankment.
The atmosphere of the Greek islands here is surprisingly combined with Turkish flavor.
