Visit to the House of Virgin Mary

Hello friends,
I visited the house of Virgin Mary on the weekend. I had a difficult journey for this visit that I had planned for a long time. To reach the House of Virgin Mary, which is 10 km away from the town centre, I had to go up the winding roads at the foot of Bülbül Mountain. But when I got there it was worth it. I've been wondering about this place for a long time.

Before moving on to basic information about the Virgin Mary's house, I would like to talk about the details of the trip and my observations. Hope it helps for those planning to go there.

In order to reach the Virgin Mary's House, you need to descend approximately 100-150m from the place where you parked your vehicle. Except for tour vehicles and disabled vehicles, you are not allowed to go down to the parking lot below.

These grueling journeys and walks - if you go in hot weather like me - can tire you out a bit. The cafes, shops and shaded areas at the entrance are very nice for you to relax. It might be a good idea to refresh here before visiting and to take a look at the places where you can shop on the way out.

After resting for a while, I continued on my way. While walking towards the House of Virgin Mary, there was a sign on the road giving information about historical buildings and this place.

After a while, the house of the Virgin Mary appeared. It was a small but magnificent building. Before entering the house, I wanted to examine almost every stone of the house. I was standing in front of a magnificent place both in terms of believers and in terms of history. There were people of different religions around the house. They were silent out of respect for the sacred place.

There were many people visiting the House of Virgin Mary. This place had a common meaning to the holy books for them. Sometimes, unintentionally, I could hear people around me talking about what they saw. Often the more knowledgeable ones volunteered to guide their companions.

It was forbidden to take photos inside the House of Virgin Mary. -I'm sorry I couldn't show you that part.- After I've been here long enough, I made my way to the exit. On this road, there was a fountain believed to give healing power to those who drink, and a wall where people wrote their wishes and tied them.

There is a debate in the Christian world about having the House of Virgin Mary here. But the recent visits and consecration of this place by many different Popes gives us an idea.

There is some evidence that this is the House of the Virgin Mary. One of them was the dreams of the bedridden nun Anne Catherine Emmerich, known for her mystical powers. The House of Virgin Mary was discovered thanks to the descriptions of this place where the nun had never been. Also, St. There is evidence that Mary was here with John after the death of Jesus.

Leaving aside the evidence, every year on August 15, Hz. The Assumption of Mary is celebrated by both Catholics and Orthodox. While the Catholics celebrate at the Virgin Mary's House, the Orthodox hold these events at the Dimitrous Church in the village of Şirince in Izmir.

I found this information in my research on the Virgin Mary's house. Those who are interested in the subject can do a more comprehensive research.
