St. John's church ruins in Selcuk

Standing in the St. John church, which is evidently undergoing reconstruction (looooong project...) by Pamukkale University. This church was built directly over what is believed to be St. John's grave. It woul dbe the 7th largest in the world if it were reconstructed.





From St John church on top of the hill near the castle in Selcuk (near Efes), overlooking the coutyard of the Isa Bey Cami. The mosque is more attractive from this point. Up close, it struck me as a bit of a hodge-podge.
