A fabled Greek port city with a 2,300-year Jewish presence makes for a poignant visit.

It is a relaxed and surprisingly gracious kind of place, though scruffier than, say, Trieste, and wears a mottled overcoat of paradox and pathos. In this quintessentially Greek metropolis, the founding father of modern Turkey, Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, was born. Also, 96 percent of the city’s Jews, who have a 2,300-year presence here, perished in the Holocaust.
