Altar and Icon of Jesus Christ in Abandoned Greek Church on Camellia / Kameriye Island #133881996
Description
1800 years old Orthodox church, located on Kameriye Island in the Aegean town of Marmaris and considered as the second home of the Virgin Mary in Turkey. This was a small but thriving Greek community stretching around the south and south east side of the island. There are some great Greek ruins that have a small Orthodox church built within a larger one from earlier times. There is an old Greek church and a monastery in the South of Kameriye Adasñ. You can also see some mosaic flooring and a cistern well. Often goats will join you in rambling over the ruins.
