Ephesus, one of the best-preserved Greco-Roman cities, invites visitors to step back in time. Dating to the Greek and Roman eras, its streets, still marked by chariot wheels, connect you to a vibrant past. Discover the Great Theater, seating over 20,000, where gladiatorial battles once entertained crowds. Visit the Public Agora, where St. Paul preached and Anatolian handicrafts, celebrated for their quality, were traded. Walk along Marble Street to the Celsus Library, the third-largest library of the ancient world, renowned for its beautifully restored façade. Explore other wonders like the Temple of Hadrian, Trajan Fountain, Domitian Temple, and Odeon, a venue for musical performances. Ephesus reflects the grandeur and cultural richness of ancient civilizations, making it a must-visit destination in Turkey.

The House of the Virgin Mary, nestled near Ephesus, is a revered Christian pilgrimage site believed to be where the Virgin Mary spent her final days and was assumed into heaven. According to tradition, Apostle John brought Mary to Ephesus after the Resurrection of Christ, seeking refuge following the martyrdom of James and other apostles. Built on the foundations of her home, the church has been affirmed by visits from three popes: Pope Paul VI in 1967, Pope John Paul II in 1979, and Pope Benedict XVI in 2006. Their visits, along with their gifts to the shrine, highlight the site’s sacred significance and authenticity. This tranquil and spiritual destination continues to inspire faith and devotion, offering visitors a profound connection to biblical history and the life of the Virgin Mary.

The Temple of Artemis, one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, was dedicated to Artemis, the Greek goddess of the hunt and moon. Built around 650 BC on a site sacred to Cybele, the Anatolian Mother Goddess, it was financed by King of Lydia and engineered on marshy ground to prevent earthquake damage. In 41 BC, Cleopatra’s sister, Arsinoe IV, was murdered here under Mark Antony’s orders. Though only columns and ruins remain, the temple’s legacy rivals the grandeur of the Parthenon.
