Alhamdulillah.

The Basilica St. John was constructed by Justinian I in the 6th century. Its stands over the believed burial site of John the Apostle. Construction of the church began in about 536 and was dedicated on the eve of the feast day of the Princes of the Apostle on June 28, 550 and completed in 565.  It is believed that the evangelist St. John had spent his last years in the region around Ephesus and buried in the southern slope of Ayosolug Hill. 300 years after his death, a small chapel was constructed over the grave in the 4th century. With the invasion of the Turks, the chapel was used as a mosque in the 14th century. Unfortunately, Basilica St. John became unusable due to the serious earthquake in the same century. .
