Activity itinerary

Meryemana (The Virgin Mary's House)
  • 30m
  • Admission ticket included
The House of the Virgin Mary (or Meryem Ana Evi in Turkish) is a place where, according to the beliefs of many people Mary, the mother of Jesus, spent the last years of her life. She was supposed to arrive at Ephesus together with St. John and lived there in the years 37-45 CE until her Assumption (according to Catholic doctrine) or Dormition (according to Orthodox belief).
Ancient City of Ephesus
  • 2h
  • Admission ticket included
Of Turkey's hundreds of ancient cities and classical ruins, Ephesus is the grandest and best preserved. Indeed, it's the best place on the Mediterranean to get a feel for what life was like in ancient times. Ancient Ephesus was a great trading city and a centre for the cult of Cybele, the Anatolian fertility goddess.
The Odeion
  • 15m
  • Admission ticket included
Odeon. The Odeion of Ancient Ephesus is a small, semi-circular theatre originally constructed in the 2nd century A.D and financed by PubliusVedius Antonius and his wife FlaviaPaiana. The building would have served as a space for political meetings, social events, concerts, and theatrical performances.
Bibliotheque de Celsus
  • 20m
  • Admission ticket included
This magnificent library dating from the early 2nd century AD, the best-known monument in Ephesus, has been extensively restored. Originally built as part of a complex, the library looks bigger than it actually is: the convex facade base heightens the central elements, while the middle columns and capitals are larger than those at the ends. Facade niches hold replica statues of the Four Virtues. From left to right, they are Sophia (Wisdom), Arete (Goodness), Ennoia (Thought) and Episteme (Knowledge).
Temple of Hadrian
  • 10m
  • Admission ticket included
This temple dedicated to the Emperor Hadrian is considered one of the best preserved and most beautiful structures on Curetes Street. It was constructed in the beginning of the 2nd century AD by P. Quintilius to celebrate Hadrian visiting the city from Athens.
Efes Antik Kenti Tiyatrosu
  • 20m
  • Admission ticket included
The great theatre of Ephesus is a splendidly preserved and very impressive building. This structure, built of marble, has a width of 145 metres, and its audience once reached up to 30 metres. In its heyday, it could accommodate up to 24,000 spectators. The construction of the theatre began in Hellenistic times.
Isa Bey Mosque
  • 15m
  • Admission ticket included
Isabey mosque was built in a post-Seljuk/pre-Ottoman transitional style, when Selcuk was capital of the Aydin Emirate. An inscription in Arabic above the main entrance states that it was built in 1375.
