This image depicts a wide, ancient paved street within the archaeological site of Ephesus, located near the city of Selçuk, Turkey. The scene is observed under a clear, cloudless blue sky, suggesting bright daylight. The central feature is a long, straight, and wide paved road constructed from large, light-colored rectangular stone slabs, extending from the foreground into the receding distance. The road surface exhibits some wear and scattered small, dark, pebble-like debris. Both sides of the street are lined with archaeological remnants, primarily consisting of numerous weathered marble columns, column fragments, and stone foundations. On the immediate right in the foreground, a prominent, multi-component stone structure, appearing as stacked column sections or a pedestal, is visible. On the immediate left, a tall, partially intact column stands amongst rubble and green vegetation. Further along both sides of the street, rows of varying heights of fragmented and standing columns are visible, interspersed with the remnants of ancient walls and structures. A white informational sign is partially visible among the ruins on the left side. In the mid-ground and background, the street continues, leading towards more distant ruins and archaeological structures, including what appears to be a large, rounded or arched building. Sparse green vegetation, including trees and bushes, is visible along the edges of the ruins, particularly on the left side, where a sloping hill or mountain is also visible in the distance. No individuals or active subjects are present in the image.
