Start at Ayasoluk Hill where St. John the Theologian is buried. Enter through the Gate of Persecution built by the Byzantines in the 6th century. After his exile on the island of Patmos, Saint John returned to Ephesus around the year 97 and wrote his Gospel there. He died two years later, and on the site of his grave a small church was built. In the 6th century, it became a basilica destroyed in 1402 by Tamerlan. Go up to the Byzantine fortress. The tower of the ramparts offers a panoramic view of the region, the caravanserai and the Isa Bey mosque.

Bien qu'il ne reste pas grand chose de la basilique en elle-même, les ruines permettent d'imaginer la dimension du bâtiment, très impressionant.
De plus, croyant ou non, cela reste un lieu chargé d'histoire et la vue depuis le haut de la forteresse au sommet de la colline vaut le détour!
