City facts that are useful

Izmir has a typical Mediterranean climate. Temperatures over 30 °C are typical in the summer. In July and August, precipitation is almost non-existent. Winters are warm yet humid, with as many as 12 rainy days per year in December and January.

Izmir's human habitation history stretches back to at least 6500 B.C., when the ancient human village of Yeşilova Mound was founded here during the late Stone Age. The city was afterwards occupied by ancient civilizations such as the Lydians, Persians, Macedonians, and Romans. Many intriguing historic sites still exist in and around Izmir and may be visited by visitors to convey the narrative of the city's past.

Izmir is Turkey's third-largest city, after Istanbul and Ankara, with a population of 2.97 million; another 1.4 million live in the city's wider metropolitan region. The city is divided into eleven districts, some of which are culturally and historically different and worth exploring.

Best vacation spots and activities

Konak Square is located in the city of Konak. Konak Square, the city's major meeting place and throbbing heart, is home to Izmir's most recognized monument, the clocktower. You may also pay a visit to the magnificent Konak Yali Mosque and test your haggling abilities at the Kemeralt Bazaar, both of which are located just adjacent to the plaza.

Alsancak. Alsancak, which is made up of a network of small, narrow alleys, is the only location in Izmir where its Greek history can still be seen in the form of historic homes and other structures. If you want a more Turkish flavor, go to one of the many shisha bars that are located here.

Kordon. The lovely promenade along the Aegean Coast is ideal for a leisurely stroll, meeting people, relaxing in the shade of a palm tree, or visiting a local restaurant.
