What to expect

  1. Ephesus Ancient City
    2h · Admission ticket not included
    Ephesus is an important place in Christian history as it is recognized as the final residence of Mother Mary. During the second half of the first century Christians were heavily persecuted under the Roman rule. According to tradition after the crucifixion of Jesus, St John did bring Mother Mary to Ephesus with him to hide escape persecution.
  2. The House of the Virgin Mary
    45m · Admission ticket not included
    The House of the Virgin Mary is located 6 kms (3.7mi) from Ephesus and surrounded by pine and olive trees. It is made of stone and looks very small and humble. Outside the house is a “wishing wall” which pilgrims have used by tying their personal intentions on paper or fabric. A water source is also located nearby, believed to have miraculous powers of healing. The shrine was visited by several popes.
  3. The Temple of Artemis
    20m · Admission ticket not included
    The last historical spot of your tour will be the Temple of Artemis (Diana) which was one of the seven wonders of the ancient World.
