Old Doğanbey Village
Located on the Dilek Peninsula (Dilek Yarımadası) 30 km away from Söke district, old Doğanbey Village is a village abandoned by the Greeks, who migrated to Greece as a result of the population exchange between Greece and Türkiye during the National Resistance. The village, which was founded under the name "Domatia", meaning ‘rooms’ in Greek, took the name of "Doğanbey" over time. The buildings such as houses, shops, hospitals and fountains in the village, which lean against the Mykale Mountains (Dilek Mountains), reflect the architectural features of the late Ottoman period. Houses abandoned by the villagers who settled as a result of the exchange in the past are being restored by their new owners. It attracts photography enthusiasts and those who want to experience authentic life.
