Sirince Village
Next, you’ll see an amazing town with an amazing story.
Cirkince Village (its old name – means ugly) was formerly a lovely old Greek orthodox town 12 kilometers from Ephesus. Its residents gave it this name intentionally since they did not want to be disturbed by strangers or have their village’s attractiveness shared with them.
