The library of Ephesus.  I was in shock that such an amazing structure still stands.  The Artemision (temple of Artemis) did not survive and that was disappointing, but seeing a structure that was this well preserved was quite amazing.  I wonder what it looked like in it’s prime when it was full of codices, manuscripts, and scrolls…  For a book lover like me it would be amazing…  The inscriptions on the walls are quite legible and there’s plenty of detail that hasn’t worn away.  To be completely honest it looks like it could fall down at any moment, because the front wall and entrance is the tallest part.  The other four sides are considerably shorter, at any rate Ephesus as a whole was quite amazing.  There are even ancient latrines.  It’s an archaeologist’s dream.  Maybe one day I can return as a professor and give it some further study.
