Konak is the central district of İzmir on the eastern shore of the gulf, and is where the city's historic core sits. The waterfront promenade runs along its length, and the Kemeraltı bazaar quarter spreads inland behind it.
The ornate Ottoman clock tower on Konak Square is the city's emblem, and the Kemeraltı bazaar behind it is a large and genuinely working market rather than a tourist one. The Roman agora, the historic Kızlarağası inn and the Asansör lift built to connect two levels of a hillside quarter are the other central sights.
The waterfront is walkable and a metro line and ferries serve the district, with the ferry across the gulf the pleasantest way to move. Ephesus and the other ancient sites are reached by train or bus from the centre.
Spring and autumn are the most comfortable, with warm dry weather. Summers on the Aegean are hot but tempered by sea breezes, and winters are mild and wet.
Turkey uses the TRY, calling code +90.
Turkey uses the lira, and Turkish is the everyday language with some English in the tourist areas. Bargaining is expected in the bazaar, and cards are very widely accepted.
