Hi there,
First of all, thank you for letting us take a little time of yours..

Brief Kusadasi information;
Kusadasi means "Bird Island" and the town takes its name from the little island (whose name in Turkish means "Pigeon island" or "Dove Island") that is in the harbour and is now connected by a causeway to the shore.This lovely marine city is near Izmir. The cruise ships have established Kusadasi as a major port over the last 15 to 20 years, and as a result, the once sleepy fishing village has evolved into a first-class resort with a full infrastructure of hotels, restaurants, shops and nightlife. Many interesting sites south of Kusadasi can be explored from the town. Such as Ephesus (Efes),House of Virgin Mary.Kusadasi is just 18 km away from Ephesus, also reachable to others: Priene, Miletos, Didyma a few hours away from the Kusadasi.
