Phokaia Ancient City Ruins
Phokaia Ancient City, one of the oldest settlements in Izmir, is located in Foça and is one of the historical values of the city with its intact ruins that have not lost anything from their historical texture from the 2000s BC to the present day. Thousands of touristic trips are organized every year to the Ancient City of Phokaia, which is a very special place.
As a result of the work carried out since 1952, first the Temple of Athena and then the column city walls, theater and architectural ruins were unearthed. As a result of the studies that continued until 1993, the Ancient City of Phokaia was declared a protected area and taken under protection. You can visit and learn about the Temple of Athena, the Ancient City of Phokaia and other historical structures in more detail with private tours and a Foça travel guide.
Transportation to the Ancient City of Phokaia, located on the road connecting Eski Foça to Yeni Foça, is easily provided by the 744 ESHOT line.
