• Meryemana (The Virgin Mary’s House) - The second stop is the revered House of the Virgin Mary, located in the tranquil Aladağ Mountains, just five miles from ancient Ephesus. Tradition holds that Mary traveled to Ephesus with St. John in 37 A.D. and spent her final years here until her death in 48 A.D. Recognized as a sacred site, it was declared a pilgrimage destination by the Archbishop of Izmir in 1892. Since then, it has attracted visitors from around the globe, including Pope Paul VI, who visited to pray on July 26, 1967.

Although only a few columns and scattered ruins remain today, the site still exudes an aura of grandeur and reverence. Dedicated to Artemis, the ancient Greek goddess of the hunt, wilderness, and fertility, this temple was once one of the most magnificent and awe-inspiring structures ever constructed.
