The New Pope’s First Step: İznik, Türkiye.
As the newly elected spiritual leader of the Catholic Church, Pope Leo XIV prepares to embark on his first international visit — and the world watches as he chooses İznik (ancient Nicaea), a city with profound Christian significance.

This year marks the 1700th anniversary of the First Council of Nicaea, which took place in 325 AD in İznik. It was here that the foundations of Christian doctrine were laid, shaping the future of the global Church. The Pope’s visit is not just symbolic — it is spiritual, historical, and deeply meaningful.

İznik is more than a destination.
It is a sacred milestone in the story of faith.
From its ancient basilica submerged in Lake İznik to its role as the meeting point of the early Church, this city invites every believer, every seeker, to reconnect with the roots of Christianity.

At ChristianPilgrimageTurkiye.com, we are honored to spotlight İznik as the heart of our pilgrimage journey in Türkiye.
Join us in walking this holy path — in a year when history speaks again, and faith comes full circle.

✨ In the Footsteps of the First Christians: A Lenten Pilgrimage to Türkiye ✨

As the Lenten season begins, we invite our Christian brothers and sisters to embark on a spiritual journey to Türkiye, where faith, history, and devotion intertwine.

Follow the footsteps of the Apostles through the ancient Christian settlements of Cappadocia, the House of the Virgin Mary in Ephesus, the Church of St. Peter in Antioch, and the sacred sites of St. Paul in Tarsus, including the historic St. Paul’s Well and Memorial Museum. This pilgrimage offers a profound opportunity for reflection, renewal, and deeper faith.

May this sacred journey be a time of prayer, spiritual cleansing, and preparation for the joy of Easter.

✝️ "Return to me with all your heart, with fasting and weeping and mourning." – Joel 2:12

Discovering the holy site in Antioch with NCPC exploration team at the St. Simon’s Monastery in the biblical Antioch in SYRIA - in the present day Turkey, a truly inspiring experience alongside the leadership of Ambassador Simon Dolly and the esteemed officials from the Nigeria Christian Pilgrimage Commission (NCPC).

Saint Simon Monastery located on top of a mount between Antakya (Antioch)-Samandağı Road and Asi River is reached from Değirmenbaşı Town.

The monastery is constructed on a hill top with an elevation of 479 meters within the boundaries of Aknehir Settlement. Saint Simon Monastery with its additions is a structure which is engraved partially on the rocks by using cut stones. It is settled on a rectangular area in the dimensions of 132x160 m. It is encircled by two walls that are parallel to each other and has entrances from three directions. Presently it has two entrances. Saint Simon had been a small child who had started to take religious training when he was too small and had devoted his whole life to God after that. It is rumoured that he had come to this mount and started to live here after taking an arduous religious training. When his name was heard and known by everyone day after day he had been swarmed with the visitors. His ability to treat the diseases despite his young age had made him exalted and therefore the mount where he had lived had been named as the mount of miracles. It is observed that this monastery built by engraving the rocks and using cut stones had been built in the form of cross.

This monastery constructed in the 6th century A.D, is recognized as the place where Saint Simon of Antioch had lived on a column for 40 years. In the monastery complex included in the map of faith tourism in Turkey has 3 churches, a baptistery, an octagonal courtyard and the column of Saint Simon in the middle. There are remains of cisterns, houses, kitchens, cellars in the nearby. Saint Simon had come here in 541 A.D., and died in 592 A.D
