Nightlife: From
here, down the Aegean, Turquoise, and Mediterranean coasts, there's no
way to get away from the forced partying, be it in one of the seemingly
infinite clubs on Barlar Sokagi (Bar Street) or in your hotel's very
own disco. Kusadasi's nightlife is concentrated in the old town
center, in the narrow streets bordered by Barbaros Hayrettin Bulvari
and Saglik Sokak. Kusadasi's Barlar Sokagi (walk up Barbaros Hayrettin
Bulv., turn right onto Saglik Sok., and then left under the arch into
the confusion) boasts more Irish pubs per square inch than Dublin.
