Such a powerful energy here, an amazing place to meditate
If you visit the House of the Virgin Mary in Ephesus, remember to bring paper/ cloth and a pen. After you exit the house you go down the terrace where you may drink from the holy water fountain and write a wish to add to this wall. It was fun to see what other visitors from around the world wished for. One note translated from Mandarin read, "I wish for a handsome husband and money."

There is not such a House of Virgin Mary. There is a small chapel built on top of what was supposed to be the house. In addition, the gate person controlling the entrance to the parking lot charged us 10 liras per car and 40 liras per person, total 90 ($15 US) out of nowhere, without any ticket control or prices publicly posted.
