Kusadasi Castle, Kuşadası, Aydın, Turkey
Kuşadası’s small, picturesque Byzantine fortress stands on the causeway-connected Güvercin Adası (Pigeon Island) and has recently been renovated. A path leads around the island’s eastern side with views of Kuşadası – popular with strolling couples, fishers and cats. Inside, there’s a skeleton of a 14.5m fin whale and a few models of sailing boats.
