Ancient World: Step back in time and use your phone to view the ancient world as it once was. Simply download the experience, press play, and look around to see historic buildings, places, and landmarks brought back to life, fully restored to reflect their heyday. This easy-to-use immersive experience requires no technical knowledge; just relax and enjoy the journey. Collect your QR code from the Shore Excursions Desk; your QR code is unique to you and can be used on one device only. Walk along the marble streets of Ephesus, where Mark Antony and Cleopatra plotted against an empire, where Saint Paul sparked riots, and where the Virgin Mary spent her final years. These old stones whisper an epic story of some of humanity's greatest comebacks. From a Greek colony to a Roman powerhouse to a Christian sanctuary, the Turkish city of Ephesus was a master of reinvention. Emperors ruled, apostles preached, and ordinary people faced the same challenges that many do today. Explore the streets of Ancient Ephesus using immersive virtual technology on your phone to view some favorite spots as they were in their historical heyday.
