One of the very amazing ruins in Efes is the huge amphitheatre with a 25,000 seat capacity and superb acoustic effects. 25,000 Ephesians gathered in this theater for various events. Nero built it in the first century A.D. The small columned building in the center is the Treasury. As with all of these ancient sites, pieces of the puzzle are stacked everywhere. Today the theatre hosts a number of orchestral and theatrical performances during the famous annual Ephesus Festival.
