About İzmir
İzmir is Turkey's third-largest city and a major port on the Aegean coast. It is an important centre for trade, manufacturing and exports, and it is known for its seafront promenade, the Kordon, the Kemeraltı bazaar and the clock tower in Konak Square. The nearby ancient city of Ephesus makes it a popular base for visitors.
İzmir uses Turkey Time, UTC+3, all year round, as Turkey stopped changing its clocks seasonally. The whole country, including Istanbul and Ankara, shares this zone. Because Greece does use summer time, the nearby Greek islands are one hour behind İzmir in winter but on the same time in summer, which matters for ferry connections across the Aegean.
