The original Temple of Artemis was built 550 BCE, many grand temples were erected to honour the Gods and Goddesses, however, few can compare to the Temple of Artemis. One of the Seven Ancient Wonders of the World, it has been said to put the other monuments to shame. At twice the size as the Parthenon of Rome, it must have been a remarkable sight.

The house of The Virgin Mary a humble home hidden in the hills. The house is a small building that contains a dining space, living and sleeping room, and an altar for prayer. The one luxury you will see is the well outside of the house.

IsaBey Mosque is a visual feast. Built by master craftsman Ali Damaski of Damascus in 1375. There are two entrances, east and west, both with fountains that allow for pre-prayer washing. Originally there were two minarets, however, one was totally destroyed by an earthquake.
