Finally, we will visit Yamaç Evleri. While exploring these places, your visit to Ephesus would not be complete. You will reach the terrace houses through the 1st C mosaic walkway, which separates from the main street of the site. These houses were where very wealthy people lived, and you will at least get an idea of how the upper class lived. Bathrooms had such refinements as central heating, mosaic floors, and painted, decorated walls. These details are truly impressive.
There are many steps to get to the top of the exhibit, so you need to be prepared. The houses are beautifully preserved and skillfully arranged, with transparent platforms and staircases allowing you to see every aspect of the ruins. Excavations are still going on in the area and it is really fascinating to see the workers making preparations to extract the small mosaic fragments. There is amazing restoration work going on right now! Mosaic floors are truly impressive and deserve praise. Slope Evler is located in the middle of your typical Ephesus tour and is under a large cover to protect it because the excavation work is still going on. Initially the houses were 2 stories, but over time the upper floors collapsed. Still, there are many things worth seeing.
