This delightful village, 12 km away from Ephesus and 30 km from Kusadasi, was once
Cirkince ("ugly").There is a story that the village was settled by freed Greek slaves who
named the village Cirkince (meaning "Ugly" in Turkish) to deter others from following them.
Indeed its habitants gave this name on purpose as they did not want to be bothered by
foreigners or 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. This lovely village is famous for its own wines and olive oils and garden produce. Sirince
especially worth visiting for the magnificent scenery, in particular the breathtaking views of
olive groves and lush countryside en-route to the village.
