In the half day Ephesus tour from Izmir we will pass through the verdant Izmir coasts and plains and mountains then arrival to The House of Virgin Mary on the top of Bulbul Mountain. The house was discovered in the 19 th century. Catherina Emmerich (1775-1824) was an invalid German nun who had never visited Ephesus and yet described in great detail the house and its situation which she had seen in a vision. It is believed that St.John brought Mary (the mother of Jesus) to Ephesus sometime between AD 37-48 and she spent her last years of her life there.
