Kayakoy Ancient Site Walk (5 km)

Abandoned Village of Kayakoy - Kayakoy is a ghost village steeped in history. Formerly known as Levissi, it was a bustling Greek settlement until the 1923 population exchange between Greece and Turkey.

The village was then deserted, leaving over 500 stone houses, two historic churches, and several chapels scattered across the hillside. These silent, weathered structures narrate tales of a once-thriving community.

Today, Kayakoy serves as an open-air museum, offering visitors a window into the past with stunning views of the surrounding valleys and distant sea. The village is a popular stop along the Lycian Way, drawing history buffs, photographers, and travelers seeking tranquility. Kayakoy stands as a poignant reminder of cultural heritage and the historical impacts on communities.
