SW: Bezirgan, Kale

Bezirgan was very hard to find. It's a nearly abandoned village near Kalkan where you see no one under 60.

The Church of St. Nicholas, in Kale, is a really stunning church from the 3rd century, restored into a Byzantine basilica in 1043. It has the most gorgeous mosaic floors I have ever seen.
