In this episode we explore the abandoned city of Kayaköy in Fethiye, Turkey. This town was abandoned suddenly in 1923 and we have been fascinated to find out why?
The thing that really surprised us was just how vast this place was. We could have hiked all day and only just reached the other side.
This is a MUST visit if you are traveling to Fethiye anytime soon.

Originally from Manchester, England, we decided in 2019 that we would work to quit our 9-5 jobs and travel the world indefinitely. We now try to say ‘yes’ to as many opportunities as possible.
We started this UA-cam channel because Jake’s mum told us we had to! It’s now allowing us to share our experiences with friends and family.

Hopefully! We’ll have to see what the weather is like though 🫡
Went to Oludeniz and Fethiye back in 2011 and I remember visiting this place. Awesome site to see. Thanks for bringing back the memories. :-)
It’s a stunning place isn’t it!
@@everydayweekend4823 Not just stunning, also fascinating. Especially the story behind it. I do love a good ghost town.
ohh that man is so hot. damn. Btw it is said about that town that at midnight there are some voices and talkings in different languages not just Greek or Turkish but english and the others. And some mymics or talking of the tourists that went there in the day. And there is no way that you could see any animal there at midnight. These are romours tho
Wow, we didn’t know that! When we’re back next year we might go ghost hunting there at night 👻
Can I pls get more from John?
We’ll be travelling with him again in January, so plenty more of John to come 🙌🙌 thanks for following along with us!
5:44 There’s a lot of wrong information about the historic stuff. When you say 1923 to a Turk, yes, the people exchange of Greek and Turkey will pop up to their mind which is connected to the treaty of Lausanne made by Europeans and has caused a lot of political issues in Turkey concerning the Kurdish for example.
Anyways, basically Anatolian Greeks & Asian Turks had to leave their homes from 1919-1923. 1923 is one of the last arrivals. Western people sometimes interpret this story in a very Eurocentric manner. Yes, Christian Greeks left their home of centuries (in Anatolia and the Aegean of cities like Sivas, Trabzon, Ayvalik) for todays Greek. Muslim Turks left their home of centuries (todays Greek mainland & the islands like Crete, Saloniki, Lesvos, Corfu) for mainly the Aegean part & Istanbul.
But what is not seen by Eurocentric thinkers is that among the Christian population that had to move around there are a lot of ethnically Turkish people that became Christian to stay with their Greek partners for example or converted because they didn’t want to leave their home. But also many that were Christian anyway.
There are many such ignored details :)
Saw your history buddies?
Same way u all will get disappeared from Europe.You all have become irreligious.Muslims will invade you..Become religious and good Christians and get ready for future Crusades or get perish......😮😢
