Situated on the Aladag Mountains, 5 miles from Ephesus, it was claimed at the third Ecumenical Council in 431 AD that Mary arrived in Ephesus with St. John in 37 A.D. and lived there until her passing in 48 A.D. After its discovery, the Archbishop of Izmir declared it a pilgrimage site in 1892. Pope Paul VI visited and prayed there on July 26, 1967.
• Ancient City of Ephesus - The tour continues to the second stop, Ephesus Ancient City, a highlight in Turkey. Ephesus, one of the 12 cities of the Ionian League, is located near Izmir. As a port city, it was a key departure point for trade routes into Asia Minor.

Guests can explore history along marble streets lined with remarkable public buildings, including the Baths of Scholastica and the Library of Celsus, built in the early 2nd century A.D. by Gaius Julius Aquila in memory of his father, Gaius Julius Celsus Polemanus, the proconsul of the Province of Asia. The Temple of Hadrian and The Grand Theater are among the most impressive structures in Ephesus. The Grand Theater, constructed in the 3rd century B.C., was later expanded by the Romans in the 1st century A.D. to accommodate 24,000 spectators.
