Turkey – Fethiye

We toured a Battle of Gallipoli traveling museum. The guide patiently explained every part of the display and was, so happy to have a chance to practice his English.

So many shots were fired you can see here how some bullets actually penetrated other bullets.

Then we went to the ghost town of Kayakoy. This is an old Greek settlement with 3,500 homes clinging to the ridges. The old Greek settlement called Levissi has two churches and 14 chapels.  It was evacuated in 1923 as part of a population exchange after the Turkish war with Greece.
