Present day Kayaköy, a town in southwestern Turkye was once inhabited by Anatolian Greeks, until in 1922 they fled to Greece and the town perished.
Nearby Babadağ mountain.
Once a population of 2000, the fall of the Ottoman empire lead to a population exchange between Greece and Turkye, leaving Kayaköy a ghosttown and openair museum.
Build in the 18th century on the ancient site of Lebessus, a Lycian town.
About 500 houses remain, including old churches,
a house mosaic, done with pebbles you can find at the beach.
Ancient fireplace.
Sitting here in cold Europe, my travel posts increased these last days.
Enjoy the X-mas holidays people!
Fascinating ghost town!
