The Izmir Adnan Menderes Airport is the receiving airport for cheap flights to Izmir from the UK. Its IATA code is ADB. The airport is serving Izmir as well as the surrounding region for both domestic and international flights. There are two terminals; an international terminal and a domestic one, each designed to state of the art and furnished with duty-free stores, waiting for lounges, and eateries to meet the demands of growing traffic.

The total distance of Izmir Adnan Menderes Airport from centre city Izmir is about 17 kilometres. The airport is conveniently located just outside of the main commercial districts, making it a 40-minute drive during regular hours. Add 10 to 15 minutes if you are to travel during rush hours (e.g. early morning, evening).

The Grand Bazaar, also known as the Kemeralti Bazaar, is the centre of activity and a visit to Izmir is incomplete without visiting this arcade. There are a number of stalls and you can find almost everything here, so expect a lot of crowd in the area.

Izmir has a rich heritage of Roman and Greek architecture due to its connection with both the civilizations. Alexander the Great started forming this city and the Romans finished it. The best place to find the remains are in Agora, the ancient marketplace of the Roman Era.

Another significant site in Izmir overlooking the city and the sea. Finished back in 1901, the clocktower remains an iconic landmark of the late Ottoman era.

Displayed here are some of the rarest artefacts and finds from Turkey, resulting from decades of excavations and after heavy-duty research work. If the city inspires a deeper interest in its history, architecture, and culture; you will find here everything you need to get acquainted with all these.

Turkey is dotted with a number of monuments dedicated to its founder, Mustafa Kemal Ataturk. But this museum here houses the greatest collection of his works, personal belongings, and everything else that carried his stamp.

In the outskirts of Izmir, on the way to Manisa, lies Mount Sipylus. On top of this mountain will you find the legendary Weeping Rock, the centre point of several tales in Greek Mythology. It is a trendy site for hiking as people work their way up to the summit to take photographs.

The picture of Izmir is never complete without piecing in the part of Islamic culture and architecture, prevalent for centuries. The Hisar Mosque stands tall as a symbol of Ottoman legacy in the region. The mosque was completed by the end of the 16th century and is notable for its ornate interior layout and design.
