Really great place, however you couldn't go to inside area. It isn't clear that the restriction is permanent or temporary. As I saw it perhaps restricted for a long time.

Not much there to see really, however the view of the valley from the top of the hill is breath taking.

The site is very close to Ephesus site, approximately 5 minutes drive from there. The place is believed to be where the 7 Ephesus boys slept for ages according to biblical theology. However, when it comes to Quran, the site for the 7 sleepers is believed to be in Tarsus area near Mersin. The site is small, lot of restrictions, so you can't really enter the cave itself. The site is free to enter.

The place is on a hill side with an ancient excavated chapel/church/cathedral that was expected to be the place famous where the seven grotos were buried. The place require you to climb a hill and you can watch the excavated place with the open graves and move down to gaze on the ancient entrance. The bottom of the hill has several turkish restaurants.

Another historical ruins in and around the surrounding area of Ephesus. Access is easy and the place is not busy. Short walk on the dirt uphill so not suitable for those with difficulty walking. The actual caves were gated off when I visited but still can get a glimpse from above and also through the bars. For such a historical place I am surprised it is not secured and maintained. It’s simply open to all without any site preservation in place.

As a historian, I felt I needed to visit this place and compare its story in the biblical sources and the Qur’an. The place is very easy to find, but you will need a car. There is no entrance fee. The cave itself has been converted into a church, and this is why you can see many graves for monks around the place.

Not much to see, there is a fence that you can not get past. Not worth the time. 3btraveler
