Turkish Property Great Locations Çesme One of Twelve Top Locations

I. Kaya Köyü

There is something really special concerning the bucolic valley that unfurls at the foot for the remarkable ghost settlement
of Kaya Köyü. Called Levissi when it ended up being a captivating Greek community (until 1923), it is now a collection of cobbled
paths, roofless stone houses and appealing churches that stare down on the fertile valley from a terraced hillside
above. Behind the ridges circling the valley is the Mediterranean, the famous lagoon at Ölüdeniz an amazing one
and a half hour’s stroll away, pretty Gemiler coastline a 15-minute drive. Exclusive Escapes has premium that is several
for sale in this rural idyll, all blending in tastefully because of the time-worn environment of this valley.
J. Uçhisar, Cappadocia
On the cliff-tops a mile or so above the tourist honey-pot of Göreme, Uçhisar has withstood the vicissitudes
of development far more successfully than its neighbour into the valley below. The low-key village is dominated by a
near 200ft-high stone that is natural riddled with rock-cut dwellings. It creates a great base for exploring the
magical volcanic landscape of Cappadocia – however the key to making Uçhisar such a place that is great stay are the mesmeric
sunset views across the strange Cappadocian landscape to distant Mt Erciyes. The presence of the well-regarded
Kocabag winery in the side of the village is another boon.
