Ephesus- Library and Commercial Agora

At the start of the tour, the Library was what I was most excited to see! My memory is fading a little, but I think I remember the guide saying that it was one of the biggest libraries in the ancient world, after Alexandria and maybe Rome. 

First, a picture from a distance:

Now at the street right in front:

Turing right, towards the Commercial Agora:

Outside the library are four statues representing four virtues. Here they are from left to right:

Sophia - wisdom (I can recognize that one)

Arete - Ephesus' website says it means valor, but Professor Finnigan says it means excellence

Ennoia - intelligence 

Episteme - knowledge

Next, the Commercial Agora. This is where all the shops would have been, and it's down the hill so it's closer to the harbor.
