🏛️ Ephesus – The Ancient City of Wonders
Walking through Ephesus Ancient City feels like stepping back in time. Once the capital of Roman Asia Minor, Ephesus was home to nearly 250,000 people and remains one of the best-preserved archaeological sites in the world.
Highlights include:
The Celsus Library, a stunning masterpiece of Roman architecture
The Great Theatre, which once seated 25,000 spectators
The Temple of Artemis, one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World
The Marble Street and Hadrian Temple, showing the city’s former glory
Today, millions of visitors join Ephesus guided tours from Kusadasi to experience this open-air museum. Whether you choose a private Ephesus tour with Virgin Mary House or a full-day excursion, every corner reveals another story from the past.
🙏 Virgin Mary House – A Sacred Pilgrimage Site
Just a short drive from Ephesus lies the peaceful Virgin Mary House, believed to be the final home of the Virgin Mary. Discovered in the 19th century, this modest stone house has been recognized by both the Vatican and the Muslim community as a sacred site of faith.
The air here feels different — calm, spiritual, and filled with hope. Visitors can light candles, drink from the holy spring, and leave wishes tied to the famous “Wishing Wall.”
The Virgin Mary House tour is often combined with an Ephesus visit, offering travelers a deep spiritual and cultural experience in a single day.
🍷 Sirince Village – Wine, Nature & Authentic Life
After exploring the ruins and sacred places, unwind in Sirince Village, a picturesque hillside town known for its cobblestone streets, handcrafted souvenirs, and local wines.
In Sirince, you can:
Taste homemade fruit wines like peach, cherry, and blackberry
Visit small family-run shops and traditional Turkish houses
