Ephesus, renowned as one of the best-preserved Greco-Roman ancient cities in the world, is famous for its numerous historical landmarks. These include the Odeon, a venue for music concerts; the Temple of Domitian, one of the first temples dedicated to a human; the Celsus Library, the third largest library of its time; and the Great Theatre, one of the world’s largest amphitheaters with a capacity of 24,000 people, where St. Paul once preached. Other notable sites include Roman baths, fountains, temples, the agora, the Love House, and public toilets.

The Terrace Houses in Ephesus were the residences of the upper class, renowned for their stunning mosaics and exquisite wall paintings.

The House of the Virgin Mary is a significant pilgrimage site for Christians, believed to be where Virgin Mary spent her final days and passed away. Pope Paul VI visited in 1967 and ‘unofficially’ confirmed its authenticity. Pope John Paul II visited in 1979, and Pope Benedict XVI in 2006. During their visits, they presented gifts to the shrine, which are on display for visitors to see.
