Sardis at Sart — synagogue, gymnasium, Temple of Artemis and the Revelation 3 warning to wake up.

The synagogue and gymnasium complex make Sardis one of the most rewarding Seven Churches stops for visible archaeology.

Allow 2–3 hours for synagogue, gymnasium, Temple of Artemis and photo stops. It pairs well with Thyatira and Philadelphia.

Revelation 3:1–6 warns a church with a reputation for life to wake up. The contrast between Sardis' old wealth and spiritual warning is central.
