İzmir—ancient Smyrna—has been a thriving port for millennia. From classical antiquity to the modern Republic, the city blends cultures, trade, and seaside life into a uniquely warm welcome for delegates.
Antiquity
Known as Smyrna, the area hosted early settlements and later flourished under Greek and Roman influence as a vital Aegean hub.
Ottoman Era
A cosmopolitan trading port connecting Europe and Asia, İzmir welcomed communities, ideas, and goods across the Mediterranean.
Republic & Today
As a modern city of innovation and culture, İzmir celebrates festivals, universities, and a vibrant waterfront lifestyle.
Konak Square - Clock Tower
Located at the heart of İzmir, Konak is a must-see place filled with Izmir's rich history and culture. Konak Square will welcome you with its famous clock tower, keeping track of the city's every heartbeat. Gifted to the Ottoman monarch Sultan Abdulhamid II as a celebration of the twenty-fifth anniversary of his coronation, the tower is a 125 year-old landmark of Izmir. Konak is also a great place to start exploring the city, considering how close it is to many other must-see places such as the Kemeraltı Bazaar and Agora Ruins where the centuries of cultural coexistence has left its clear mark. Konak Square from our school is a 15 minute car ride from our school. If you would like to use public transportation, you could also take the subway from Göztepe stop near our school to the Konak stop (Evka-3 direction).
