Turkey's Izmir bets on sustainable tourism despite political obstacles

Izmir (Turkey), Nov 13 (EFE) .- (Camera: Antonio Sánchez Solis) Stroll through the remains of a Byzantine basilica while listening to how a muezzin calls prayer from a medieval mosque and contemplating the ruins of the temple in the distance of the goddess Artemis, one of the seven wonders of antiquity.

This fusion of thousands of years of history in an instant is one of the experiences offered by Izmir, a Turkish province on the edge of the Aegean Sea, in the heart of what was one of the cultural, philosophical and economic centers of classical antiquity.
