Turkey Fethiye Kayaköy
AIRVŪZ STAFF NOTE :
AirVuz contributor and pilot Murat Turna brings us this splendid drone video of an eerie sight in southwestern Turkey: the abandoned village of Kayaköy. Located a few km/mi from the town of Fethiye in the Muğla Province, it was a Greek settlement that maintained a relatively peaceful existence for nearly 600 years under Ottoman rule. During World War I and the Greco-Turkish War which erupted in its wake, the town's inhabitants were forced to evacuate, in the end mainly to Greece. Abandoned, the village was never rebuilt.
