Sirince, the village known in ancient texts as “Ephesus on the Mountain,” indicates a long-standing settlement. According to local lore, the village was originally named Cirkince, meaning “rather ugly,” to deter outsiders and maintain security.

Today, the charming cobbled streets of the village are dotted with souvenir shops, an open market, numerous restaurants, and several guest houses. After the tour, visitors will return to their hotel.
