The House of the Virgin Mary
A holy shrine to the supposed death place of St. Mary, the House of the Virgin in Ephesus is a standing testament to the home of the beloved mother of Jesus . Many believe that the house was indeed the place where she spent her final days, and today you can visit the restored stone house, which now serves as a chapel. Serving as sacred territory for Christians and Muslims alike, the Virgin Mary's House has called hundreds of thousands of visitors and pilgrims since its discovery in the 19th-century. Remnants of the chapel date as far back as the 6th-century, and serves as the place where its caretakers, the Lazarist Fathers, conduct mass every day. Despite the altar placed within, the house still contains a bedroom and kitchen, decorated with pictures of Mary and candles. Many believe that the spring that runs beneath St. Mary's House is blessed and possesses the power to heal, and once you enter the house, you can see left behind crutches .

5.00Those who are into Greek mythology and antiquity must definitely visit the ancient city of Ephesus once in their lives. And this is definitely just with a travel companion, Ozy! During our Kusadasi holiday we spontaneously decided to book a day tour with a tour guide and explore all nearby attractions. Our travel companion Ozy not only knew his way around, but was also extraordinarily committed and took time to explain all the historical and cultural backgrounds in detail. We were picked up from the hotel in the morning and committed with the sightseeing tour. Lunch was a typical local restaurant with fantastic food.
