View over the ruined houses of Kayakoy (Levissi) abandoned village near Fethiye in Mugla province of Turkey. Levissi was deserted by its mostly Greek inhabitants in the general exchange of populations supervised by the League of Nations in 1923 after the Greco-Turkish War of 1919–1922. The view includes a castle-like fortified structure and Taksiyarhis upper church dating from the 19th century.
