2. Our journey begins at the legendary ancient city of Ephesus — one of Turkey’s most spectacular archaeological treasures. Walk through grand marble streets, admire world-famous monuments, and experience the atmosphere of a city that once thrived as a powerful port and commercial center of the Ionian League near modern-day Izmir.

   2 h

3. Our second stop is the sacred House of the Virgin Mary, nestled in the serene Aladağ Mountains, just five miles from ancient Ephesus. According to tradition, Mary journeyed to Ephesus with St. John in 37 A.D. and spent the final years of her life here until her passing in 48 A.D. Recognized as a holy site, it was declared a place of pilgrimage by the Archbishop of Izmir in 1892. Since then, it has drawn visitors from around the world — including Pope Paul VI, who came here to pray on July 26, 1967.

   1 h

4. Our next stop is the legendary Temple of Artemis — once hailed as one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. Though only a few columns and scattered ruins remain today, the site still radiates an aura of grandeur and reverence. Dedicated to Artemis, the ancient Greek goddess of the hunt, wilderness, and fertility, this temple once stood as one of the most magnificent and awe-inspiring monuments ever built.

About Kusadasi

Kuşadası, station égéenne animée de la côte ouest turque, est proche d'Éphèse, l'une des cités antiques les mieux préservées de la Méditerranée.

La ville s'incurve autour d'une baie avec un port de croisière animé, une marina et l'île aux Pigeons, reliée à la rive par une chaussée et surmontée d'une petite forteresse de pierre. Les rues de la vieille ville grimpent derrière le port avec bazars, cafés et restaurants, et des plages comme Ladies Beach et Long Beach s'étirent le long de la côte.
