Magnesia Antik KentiThe ancient city Magnesia which is located in the Germencik district of Turkey's western Aydın province, was known as the “city of races” and attracted many visitors due to the plethora of sporting events organized here in antiquity. The ancient city still finds a place for itself on the travel bucket list of many, drawing in visitors with its magnificent stadium where athletic games, gladiatorial fights, and chariot races were held in the past. It is believed that the ancient city of Magnesia was founded by the ancient Greek tribe of Magnetes from Thessaly. Even if the city was named after the Magnetes, it was called Magnesia on the Meander (The Büyük Menderes River) in the later period so that it could be distinguished from the nearby Lydian city Magnesia ad Sipylum (modern-day) Manisa. Magnesia was located in Ionia, the ancient region on the central part of the western coast of Anatolia.

The House of the Virgin MaryThe House of the Virgin Mary is located in the Aladag Mountains 5 miles away from Ephesus. At the third Ecumenical Council in 431 AD in Ephesus, it was claimed that Mary came to Ephesus with St. John in 37 A.D. and lived there until her death in 48 A.D. After the discovery of the house, the Archbishop of Kusadasi declared there as a place of pilgrimage in 1892. On July 26, 1967, Pope Paul VI visited this place and prayed there.
- Experience the ancient city of Ephesus from a panoramic viewpoint. From a distance, you will see the terraced houses, the Odeon, the Grand Theater, and the main entrance, capturing the essence of this legendary city without walking the full site.
