\"Terrace<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The Terrace Houses Ephesus complex was established around the 2nd century BC<\/strong> on the northern slope of the Bulbul Mountain on the left side of the corner of Curetes Street<\/a> and Marble Street<\/a>. Additionally, it’s one of the highlights of our Ephesus Private Tours and our Ephesus Shore Excursions<\/a>, which can be optionally included. These massive stone walls, once used to house houses, are located opposite the so-called Pleasure House (Ephesus Brothel<\/a>), which was used as a graveyard in the classical period (6th\u00a0<\/strong>to\u00a04th <\/strong>century BC).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

By the end of this article, you should be able to make your own decision on this matter.\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
