While Ephesus (which will get its own detailed post sometime soon), Pergamum and a few others are the best preserved and get all the press, it seems like you could toss a stick randomly along the central Mediterranean coast and hit a Greek or/(and) Roman ruin.
A sampling of our finds:
Atlantis-like feel at the watery ruins of Miletus
The 15,000 seat Great Theater at Miletus
Remains of the Temple of Athena, Priene (beneath Mt. Mykale)
Column graveyard, Priene
Remains of Greek Theater, Priene
Enjoying the power seat, Priene
Imposing steps into the city, Labranda
2,000+ year old wine casks, Labrandabecca

Isn't anyone of authority paying attention lest you carry one of their ruin bits away?
You look like you have the place to yourselves.
a) the joys and benefits of being there right before tourist season really starts
b) and no, there really wasn't anyone keeping an eye on us
we really recommend the late-April trip.
