The village of Kayaköy, perched eerily on the hillside

 The village was abandoned in the 1920s by it's Greek inhabitants after Ataturk defeated the invading Greek army. There were population exchanges and the Greek people of Anatolia left to go to Greece whilst the Turks of Greece came to Turkey. Because there were more Greeks in Turkey than Turks in Greece there were abandoned villages like this scattered across Turkey.
