I lived in Izmir, Turkey from October 1953-1955 because my Father was in the US Navy so our Family flew to Izmir to live. The weather is very similar to San Diego where we lived at the time. We returned to the USA via US Navy ship in 1955. While living in Izmir at that time we visited Ephesus, and lived near the Mosque in the Alsancak area. I loved Izmir. I am now 76. We saw Pompeii on the way back to the USA. I was 9 years old by the time we returned to the USA. I enjoyed your video very much. Thank you.
Thanks for watching! Amazing that you have such great memories from when you were 9 years old! :)
@@worldwildhearts Absolutely, and I rave about Izmir all the time; the most exciting years of my life! The LAND of ESAU.
Izmir means in english pls
@@MargaretWalkerCellist when was the last time you went there?
What’s the weather like end of February to March?
I lived for around a year in Izmir, a city that uplifted me from inside out. I will be forever grateful with the Turkish people. Sending all my love to them from Puerto Rico ♥️
Nice to hear your positive experience
Smirni you mean
Iam fascinated with turkey Iam Indian but I really want to come and visit and live there
Izmir is the third most populous city in Turkey, a modern city full of history and memories. If you find yourself in Turkey, Izmir should definitely be on your list. You can easily spend two days enjoying this vivid city
Agreed 😇 we spent a full week there and found new things every day!
I lived there for five years. Miss everything about it. Plan to return and live there again for 1/2 a year and delve into the food, shopping, culture, and tourism.
That’s awesome! 😊 Where do you live now then?
@@user-is3gk3tz8tthe most turkish city of greece is western thrace. Still Batı Trakya is full of Ottoman mosques and its good city
Beautiful Turkish city with a lot of history
I lived in Izmir 1960-1965. I'm very homesick for Izmir. I was an Army brat but to Me Turkey is best Country in the World
Wow that's a long time ago! Must have been soooo much different
Thank you. I'm traveling there tomorrow night and will be taking one of your tour links. This is beyond helpful compared to other videos online.
Awesome! You will enjoy Izmir. We’re glad you found the video helpful. Thanks for watching and welcome to our channel!
Brings back so many memories.I lived here as a child
Nice place to grow up!!
Seems like quite an active city with good variety of opportunities to explore! Thanks
Definitely! Lots of options in and around Izmir
Thanks for the virtual tour. I recently bought an appartmen in Izmir. Incredible city. Met some amazing locals and became a big fan of the local football club Göztepe. I will be visiting somewhere in July August with family when the keys of the new appartment will be handed over.
Wow that’s awesome! It’s such a vibrant city! Enjoy living in Izmir! 😎
wow welcome
I was born and raised there🙂 İzmir is my love❤️ Thanks for the video 👏🏻
You grew up in a beautiful place! We really enjoyed Izmir. So much history and beauty there. Thanks for watching 😊
@@worldwildhearts 🙂🙋🏻♂️
Really appreciate how you actually show the locations on the map and provide travel times- idk why more travel vloggers don’t put the time/effort to do so.
Thanks! ☺️ glad that’s helpful!!
Very nice video with all your interesting explanatinos. Thank ypou very much for share it.
Thanks for watching!
1st time watching one of your vids and I liked/sub'd before the intro finished. You guys are living! Showing me places I missed too! (I lived in Karsiyaka & Hatay for 4yrs.. great people/food/city).
A couple of things though. In Turkish, the C's sound like J's, and the funny S's sound like Shh (Alsan"Jack" and Che"Sh"Meh). Excellent vid!!!
Thanks for the feedback! It's hard sometimes to figure out how to say things, even if we ask people sometimes they say it different hah! ;)
Thank you for showing my hometown again.
Our pleasure! Izmir is a fascinating city
very eye opening content and neutral approach to it.
Thanks!😊
Im cried while ı watching this video because im in the United states rn izmir is my hometown i miss so much . Thank u guys 🥲🙏

Thanks! 😇
I was in Turkey once 5 years ago and it was great! I love Istanbul! I was in Efez also! It is very beautiful and worth a visit! ❤️
Great video and pictures! 🌺
Thanks!! 🥰 I wonder how much it has changed in the last 5 years!!
I was stationed in Izmir for 2 years. I absolutely loved it.
Really amazing and beautiful architecture and culture. I will go there someday and try the original kaymak.
Greetings from Korea!
Thanks for watching! You should definitely visit one day 😄
Wowww keren
Dears, thank you for this beautiful video. It' s my hometown and I left Izmir in 1999 due to my carreer and curently living abroad, far far away from my home. I enjoyed very much watching your video. It reminded me my childhood and good memories from home. thank you very much!
Glad it helped you remember those memories 😍
Masa Allah
i will be there soon!
Awesome! Enjoy Izmir 😎
I'm Ruth from phillippines i like your historical video and beautiful views. God help you more.
Thank you!
Wow how Izmir has changed but some areas are the same. It brought back memories. My husband was in the Army and we were there from 1993- 1995.
Damn that’s some time ago! Can imagine it has changed a lot
I was born and raised in the US but my parents are turkish immigrants from Izmir! I was just here a week ago! Great Video!
Hope you had a great time! ;)
@@worldwildhearts I did it was fun
@@worldwildhearts Fun Fact the architect of Konak Pier was the namesake of the Effiel tower in Paris France!
Didn’t know that!! Great fact 👍
Thanx for the introduction. I'm planning to move to Izmir in 2025 and this video gives a lot of information 😊
Nice! You’re moving permanently? 😃
Lived in Izmir from 1991-94.visited just about ask these places. Pammukale was the coolest. Looks ice cold but springs so warm! Beautiful place, would love to visit again
yes pammukale is so nice! we sat in the pools for hours
pamukkale is not connected by izmir region,it connected denizli in egean region
@@TROLLGAME1231 never said it was. We had a nice drive to get there from where we were. Same with kusadasi and Cesme. Bodrum too!
Thank you for the video. We live in Izmir and we think that it is very underrated internationally. Most people don't know much about it or never even heard of it even though it is a very historical and lively city. Thanks for sharing your stay here with your subscribers and we wish you the best travel in Turkey :)
You live in a beautiful city! Definitely underrated in our opinion as well. There is so much history there and the people we met were all so friendly. Thanks for watching 😊
Hello! I have a friend who is going to Izmir! As someone who lives in Izmir do u have some places/food places u would recommend?
@@miazouein3805 Yes, of course! We're very glad to hear that your friend is visiting Izmir and we're wishing them a great trip in advance :) In addition to the recommendations in the video, there are some places that are more well known to the locals. Izmir is a unique place where you can find different types of churches mosques and synagogues within meters of each other, so I'd recommend seeing some of them to get that multiethnic historical feeling. Some nice ones include St Polycarp church, Hisar mosque, and Beth Israel synagogue. For Alsancak area, there are some lively streets with cafes and everything that are worth visiting. First one starts from Reyhan Patisserie on Dr. Mustafa Enver Bey street and continues toward the sea. Another one is Alsancak Sevgi Yolu which is closed to traffic and is like a Turkish version of the Walk of Fame with Turkish artists' names written on stars. There are also handcraft vendors throughout Sevgi Yolu, so it is worth a visit. Definitely they should walk through the promenade which is called Kordon and watch the beautiful sunset. In the evening, friend groups fill the entire waterfront and sing songs so it is a very nice place to do some people watching. Grab a couple of beers, buy some rice filled mussels from a mussel stand and enjoy Kordon during sunset! Another thriving boulevard in this part of the city is Kıbrıs Şehitleri Caddesi. For dinner, I would recommend eating some quality seafood in one of the restaurants on Yzb. Şerafettin Bey street which is an extension from Kıbrıs Şehitleri boulevard. Don't forget to order different kinds of mezes next to the seafood and the traditional Turkish alcoholic beverage rakı. You fill half the glass with rakı and the other half with water because it's pretty strong. There is also another glass that waiters bring for pure water. You take a sip of water after you take a sip of rakı each time. They can find some nice bars and clubs in Muzaffer İzgü street which is another extension from the same boulevard. This street has colorful ancient Greek houses so even if they are not planning to explore bars, they should definitely pay a visit. At the end of the night, it is traditional to get a "bomba" which is a unique dessert to Izmir from Çelebi Patisserie. Atatürk Museum is a nice museum in the area. Alsancak Gündoğdu Square and Cumhuriyet Square are the two most important squares in the city with cool sculptures. Kültürpark is like the Central Park of Izmir and it hosts international fairs every year so exploring it and maybe spending some time in the amusement park inside would be a cool option. For Konak area, in addition to the video, there is a very historical caravanserai inside Kemeraltı Bazaar which is called Kızlarağası Hanı. They should definitely go inside, see the vendors, drink a cup of Turkish coffee and soak up all of that Ottoman era vibes. Hisar mosque can be seen from the second floor of the caravanserai as well. In Kemeraltı Bazaar, they should definitely find a pickle juice seller and try it, it's a local favorite! Two of the best museums in Izmir are the Archaeology and Ethnography Museums in Konak that are right next to each other and have various findings from the Greek, Roman, and Byzantine eras. They can combine their trip in Konak with Dario Moreno Street and the historical lift right behind it which is called Tarihi Asansör. They can take the tram to get there from Konak, it's pretty easy. This was the Jewish part of the town and Dario Moreno was a Jewish Turkish singer who lived around there. They should take the elevator up and look at the gorgeous view of Izmir. A dinner option would be in Konak Pier which is thought to have been designed by the designer of Eiffel Tower. My favorite restaurant there is North Pier's but they should call and RSVP beforehand and say that they want a table by the seaside. The city lights from the Pier at night look amazing! A trip to Izmir is never complete without taking the ferry and going to the other side of the bay. An important breakfast component to try in Izmir is the unique boyoz. It goes well with boiled eggs. Also, before taking the ferry, they can buy a gevrek (which is like a thin bagel with sesame on top) from a gevrek stand in front of the pier and throw pieces of it to the seagulls that accompany them during the ride. Usually the second floor of the ferries are open air and add more to the experience. They can take the ferry to Karşıyaka and walk the Karşıyaka Bazaar right in front of the pier. They'll see women sculptures in the entrance which are dedicated to the Amazon women who are believed to have founded the city. Close by, there is a huge monument which is Atatürk, His Mother and Women's Rights Monument. This part of the city has its own team whose colors are red and green so they'll see its flags and colors everywhere. They should take the tram and go to Yunuslar station. There is the best restaurant that makes the most famous food in Izmir: kumru. They should order a kumru which is a special kind of sandwich in the restaurant called Kumrucu Şevki. My first favorite street in this part of the city is Cemal Gürsel Caddesi that bends inwards from the waterfront next to the Adnan Saygun Park. There are nice cafes and restaurants on one side of the street and on the other side, the park includes an open air amphitheater and a small open air archaeological museum. The second street is Şht. Cengiz Topel street that starts from the corner of Bravo Patisserie and after they cross the bridge, continues onward. Bravo Patisserie is one of the best places to get ice cream! An original flavor is Girit Güzeli which literally translates to beauty from Crete. The waterfront of Bostanlı in this area is also filled with people, but here there are different courts and playgrounds that people enjoy. Also a very nice place to watch the sunset, especially on the Bostanlı Günbatımı Seyir Terası, the bridge designed for people to watch the sunset on it together. There are other amazing places to visit that are not in the city center but are worth visiting. One day trip would be to the Izmir Wildlife Park, the second largest zoo in Turkey, and the close by Birds Paradise where you can spot some flamingos and other exotic birds in their natural habitat. This trip would be even more amazing if they can rent a bike and take the bike lane all the way to these places starting from Bostanlı. Ephesus should be joined with a trip to Şirince, an ancient and authentic village that is known for its wine. Çeşme and Alaçatı would be another day trip as they have the best beaches, beach clubs and night life (if they are visiting during summer) and the most instagrammable houses with colorful flowers. Other day trips can be to the beautiful coastal towns of Foça, Sığacık and Dikili each with their own history. If they have any other questions or want more recommendations, feel free to contact me :)

Going to Izmir this summer!🥳😍
Awesome!! Have fun 🥳😎

Oi sou do Brasil não entendi seu comentário sabe brasileiro
as a turkish man who lived in izmir for 5 years, i recommend you to visit karsiyaka. one of the most beautiful districts of izmir. karsiyaka has a great basketball and sports culture, great pubs, càfes and a coast. there aren't any historical place or somewhere spesific to visit but it is a great place to spend time. i recommend you to visit downtown of karsiyaka which is called "karsiyaka carsi", bostanlı and mavisehir.
Super brawo
Thanks for watching! 😁
Thanks for sharing this beautiful video! Do you have any tips on avoiding the crowd in Pamukkale? (Time to visit, mean of transportation, etc.)?
We’d say you should try to go as early or late as possible. We stayed until sunset and most people had left at that point! If you stay in pamukkale town itself you can just walk up. If you come from another city it’s probably best to come by car.
Hiba how are you
You can’t go wrong going to Turkey
No matter where you go you feel welcomed by the locals
Love you all ❤️🇹🇷
Agreed 🙌
I'm going in 2 days and it looks fantastic.
Have a great time!
@@worldwildhearts I am, the people are amazing and the city is a perfect mix of old and new. So glad I came.
Glad you’re enjoying it! ☺️

Amazing video and very helpful indeed , can u recommend any good place to stay in Pumukkale. Thanks
Thanks! ☺️ we stayed in Denizli which is the biggest city close to Pamukkale. We rented an Airbnb for a few days. However, If you can find any good place in pamukkale then definitely stay there as it’s better!
@@worldwildhearts Thankyou so much for your lovely feedback , will definitely look into these options 😊

Any recommendations for seafood resto in Izmir? Did you visit sirince village? Btw amazing video
Thanks!!! No idea on the seafood, sorry! We didn’t visit Sirince village but heard it’s pretty cool as well! 😁
Deniz Restoran or Birinci Kordon Balık Restoran would be quality seafood destinations! Definitely visit Şirince and you can combine that visit with Ephesus :)

Great video, insha Allah I will be staying in kusadasi in October, will it be easy to visit Izmir from there on a day trip or stay over ? Please kindly let me know..
Figs from Izmir are very famous. It's a beautiful city.
Thanks for the fact!
Great Video! Do you think it is worth it to go on these day tours or to do it yourself? Is it worth is to rent a car to go to Pamukkale and Ephesus or go some other way? Thanks!
The day tours are useful if you don’t want to do a lot of planning / coordination yourself. They often also help in offering more interesting history along the way compared to just reading the signs at the locations themselves. We rented a car to visit most of them ourselves, but we had the car for a full month when we were visiting Turkey, so we’re going at a pretty slow and relaxed pace ourselves
❤️❤️❤️❤️🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷
I lived in Izmir for 4 years as a U.S. Soldier working for NATO. The video has a heavy Islamic flavor which can be off-putting to many Americans but Izmir is the California of Turkey. Located on the west coast, you can get a beer just about anywhere. To be sure, most Turks are Muslim but there is a big Christian church in Izmir and the locals do not look down on you if you are not Muslim. Also, koo-SHOD'-uh-see (Kushadesi) and CHESH'-may (Cesme) are the correct pronunciations. "c" / "s" with a hook at the bottom = ch / sh; and a regular "c" is pronounced "j": Incirlik is IN'-jur-lik.
It definitely is a progressive city! We actually enjoyed the nighlife for a night in Izmir, which was so much fun!
Most Turks are tolerant of non-Muslims (Christians9) which many Americans are not. Tolerance is a foreign word to many Americans. Most Americans I have met are xenophobic racists. That is the reality.
Hello!! I am very near Izmir right now and found your video super useful! We will go to Ephesus and the bazar in town. If you could recommend someone reliable to guide us it would be great. ps- Enjoy life as you have been doing!! It is so short!! We want to make it the best ever!!
Hi! Thanks for the comment. We got a guide at the entrance of Ephesus and he was really good! There are many guides there and they speak good English. For the town, we just wandered around on our own and we met a local woman who kinda showed us around but she wasn’t a guide… so unfortunately we can’t help with that! But it’s easy enough to wander around on your own. Or you could always ask in your accommodation if they know
Of such a service! 😄 have fun!
My travel plan is to visit Izmir,the place where my favourite upcoming actress #Sila Turkoglu was born and brought up.
Enjoy!;)

Hey guys, for these trip ..... specifically the trip to pamukkale, is it better to buy the day trip online a few weeks beforehand or just wait until you're in turkey
Please someone get back to me x
We usually wait until we’re there because we want to keep the flexibility to move things around 😁 booking beforehand gives a piece of mind but it’s not necessary. On spot you might be able to bargain and get a better price

Hello 👋
Hi, wanted to ask you should we take a guide with us for pammukale and ephesus and st mary?
Please suggest.
Also, we are visiting turkey next month 1st week do u advise us to take warm clothes(jackets, hoodie)
For Pamukkale and Ephesus, we definitely recommend a guide. There’s so much history at both of those places. You can either hire a local guide at the entrance or book a guided tour online before going. St. Mary is a very small stop, so a guide is not necessary at that one. And for clothes, it depends what areas of Turkey you’re going to. The coastal regions should be pretty warm overall, but if you go inland and more north, it can get colder in the evenings. So we would recommend at least a light jacket or sweater for those occasions. A rain jacket might also be smart just in case. Have a great trip to Turkey!
@@worldwildhearts Thank you so much for ur advice. Cheers!
Wanna go Izmir 😢😢😢
Should be on your bucket list!
If I have to choose between visiting Izmir or Antalya which would you choose?
We would recommend Antalya if we had to choose! There are even more ancient sites close to the city as well as beautiful mountain scenery and amazing beaches. But we also visited Izmir when it was not great weather, so that might influence our opinion a bit (since Antalya was sunny every day).
Where is the shopping better? Istanbul or Izmir Ito clothing and home decor goods tia
It’s personal preference really. Izmir seemed to have more authentic Turkish clothing and home decors, whereas Istanbul has more shopping options in general with a lot of western brands as well
The most important thing in life is knowledge of foreign languages! Thanks to foreign languages you can realize all your dreams and realize your grandiose ambitions! I would like to recommend all the practices of Yuriy Ivantsiv ''Polyglot Notes.

Izmir Clock Tower, in Izmir, the Ottoman Sultan II. It is a historical clock tower built in 1901 to celebrate the 25th anniversary of Abdulhamid's accession to the throne.

Is it better to stay in the center city or in Alsankak?
Both work fine! We enjoyed Alsancak because of the restaurants at your fingertips. Though it's also busy there!

How did you get your drone through customs?

Good to know. We will keep that in mind for future videos. Thank you for the insight
I spent tine there in izmir. Just a few months ago. Found it a little boring as it's a port town. Does not even have a local beach. I will say though yhe food was great.
The food is amazing indeed! We found it a very cultural city with a good atmosphere! But when it comes to beaches and adventure there are nicer places in Turkey indeed
Did you know that Konak pier was in the old day's a jail, where they tortured the prisoners, so al around it, the sea was red?
Yikes didn’t know that
As an Izmirian, I read your ridiculous comment. You love to share nonsense stories to make the Turks look bad.All irrational events suddenly become normal.

Backround music sucks! No relation with the place by any means. Unrelated songs for a city that is the center of the West Mediterranean, not even Turkish, all Arabic.
Thumbs down for lying about Pemucale - you and the every tourist agency in Turkey show you the pools that you can't go into. Just say that and give real information. :)
Maybe check out our Pamukkale video first before you judge. We do actually show which parts you get into etc.
Turkey is in the hands of the ancient peoples of the region.
90% of the people living in Turkey are not Turks, they are ancient inhabitants of the area Greeks Byzantine Jews Arabs Kurds Armenians etc., who became Turks.
It seems so from the DNA tests.
Look at your own face, does it look like from Deep Asia?
If I was a Turk I would convert to Greek. All my life would be easier
