Lonely Planet review for Temple of Hadrian
You can't miss the impressive Corinthian-style Temple of Hadrian, on the left as you head up Curetes Way, with beautiful friezes in the porch and a head of Medusa to keep out evil spirits. It was dedicated to Hadrian, Artemis and the people of Ephesus in AD 118 but greatly reconstructed in the 5th century. Across the street a row of shops from the same period are fronted by an elaborate 5th-century mosaic.
