Food scene
İzmir is famous for its delicious pastery called 'Boyoz'. Locals love it and it is mostly preferred on breakfasts with a boiled egg and a cup of tea on side. You can find it almost in every bakery in the city but this one (Dostlar Bakery) is the best you can have it from :)

Agora, located in the Basmane district in the city center, dates back to the 2nd
century AD and belongs to the Roman Period.
Most of the ruins of Agora which was established in the 4th century B.C. after the big earthquake in 178 B.C by the support of Emperor Marcus Aurelius belong to Roman Period agora.
The agora in Smyrna is a structure which was planned in the form of a rectangle and which is surrounded by columned galleries (stoa) with a large courtyard in the center. Revealed during the excavations, the northern and the western stoas ascend on the basement floor. Examined in terms of its plan features, the northern stoa is found out to be a basilica.
