The temple is the twin of Artemision which is one of the 7 wonders of the world. Another great place to visit is the old harbour City of Priene which is now 10 miles from the sea. It is thought the city changed its location when the Meander River silted up and threatened to bury the town. The original location of Priene is still a mystery.
