The house of Virgin Mary is located on the top of the "Bulbul" mountain 9 km of Ephesus. The house of Virgin Mary is a typical Roman architectural example, entirely made of stones. In the 4th century AD, a church, combining her house and grave, has been built. The original two-stored house, which consisted of an anteroom bedroom and praying room and a room with fireplace. A front kitchen fell into ruins and has been restored in 1940's. Today, only the central part and a room on the right of the altar are open to visitors. It is the place where Virgin Mary may have spent her last days.
