The ghost town of Kayakoy was abandoned during the 1923 population exchange between Turkey and Greece and is today an open-air museum for you to wander its eerie streets. Fig trees, Orthodox churches and a fountain source from the 17th century are some of the features of Kayakoy and it's recently been awarded UNESCO Friendship and Peace Village status. It's also the setting for Louis de Bernieres's novel Birds Without Wings.
