1. Begin your guided tour of Ephesus with a 30-minute drive to The House of the Virgin Mary, a holy shrine officially recognized by the Roman Catholic Church in 1896. The site was discovered in the 19th century, following visions from a nun who described it in a posthumously published book. It has since become a popular pilgrimage destination, attracting visitors, including popes. Notable is the "Wishing Wall," where pilgrims leave their wishes on paper or fabric.

3. The Basilica of St. John, a stunning church constructed in the 6th century AD, is the next highlight on your Kusadasi guided tour. It is believed that the evangelist St. John spent his final years near Ephesus and was buried on a nearby hill. Three centuries after his passing, a small chapel was erected over his tomb, which later, under Emperor Justinian, was transformed into the grand Basilica we see today. Characterized by its unique use of brick and stone, this structure is a rare architectural find for its period. The Basilica features six magnificent domes and is designed in a cruciform style, making it an exquisite photographic landmark.

The Greek temple known as the Temple of Artemis or Artemision, or the Temple of Diana, was devoted to a localized manifestation of the goddess Artemis, who was identified with the Roman goddess Diana.

The temple was demolished in 401 CE, although it had been destroyed and rebuilt numerous times throughout ancient history.The last temple's remnants and foundations are all that are left now.
