Basilica of St John the Evangelist. Selcuk, near Ephesus

Entrance to the remains of this vast Basilica built by Justinian 1st over the tomb of St John. The fact that he was so important in Christian theology, and that his writings echo Greek metaphysics from the Ephesus philosopher Heracltus in Ch 1 of his Gospel, together with the size of the building are indications that it is the right location.
