INFORMATION ABOUT SIRINCE VILLAGE
This pretty old Orthodox village, 12 km away from Ephesus, was once Cirkince ("ugly"). Indeed its habitants gave this name on purpose as they did not want to be bothered by foreigners nor to share the beauty of their village. Still after years, visitors understood that the village was not ugly at all and called it Sirince ("pretty"). As the village is located on the top of a mountain, anyone will enjoy the impressive wine yards’ and peach trees’ views on his way.

Another attraction of Sirince is its wine: try its taste in small cafés or in the former municipal school restorated. Though Sirince is developing its tourism very quickly, it has been able to preserve its authenticity and the meaning of its name.
