BUTTERFLY VALLEY
Faralya village -Oludeniz- Fethiye-Mugla-TURKIYE

      BUTTERFLY VALLEY; (hidden valley)
      First of all, it is important to mention that the intention of this page is neither advertising the valley nor praising the amazing beauties of it. (In fact, there is no need for this) The main aims for constructing this page are to introduce the place where I can rest and get rid of all the damn stress I got in the damn citylife for five years to you and to mention the residents of the valley(Sailors: Ayd?n, Ayhan, Servet  George House People: Uncle Ridvan, Aunt Seri and their grandchildren  Rifat and Nezih and the friends I met from all over the world !) to you.
    As the valley is operated or managed by the different people for each year, the fortune of the valley depends on them. They see valley as a product and normally try to cover their expenses by reflecting these notions into the prices..Sometimes,  they make strict rules to limit the comers which forms the only barrier prevents you from having fun..(like, waking up all the residents and the animals of the valley very early in the morning just to make a movie for a damn pop song)

  As the valley is operated or managed by the different people for each year, the fortune of the valley depends on them. They see valley as a product and normally try to cover their expenses by reflecting these notions into the prices..Sometimes,  they make strict rules to limit the comers which forms the only barrier prevents you from having fun..(like, waking up all the residents and the animals of the valley very early in the morning just to make a movie for a damn pop song)  Here are some unforgettable beatuies and useful advices about the valley:  It is a very great pleasure to watch the dawn from Faralya village, from rocks and from the beach with a wine bottle in your hand!!!! To dive into deepblue sea when you’re drunk  in the morning and drop all the alcohol from your veins into the sea!!!! It is for your peace and silence to stay away from daily tour visitors…Volleyball  matches in the afternoon are so challenging and enjoyable, and the joy of the talk with your buddies around the fire at the beach and singing unknown songs with them and sleep by the fire after unlimited alcohol and having a shower with cool water of the waterfall are the super feelings that only the butterfly valley can  serve you. 
   Issizligin ortasinda 
   Birgun daha batiyor
   Derin yalnizliklar
   agustos böceklerinde
   ve Kaplan kelebeklerinde

   Oturmus bakiyorsun 
   sonzuzluga Yildizlardan 
   Yol ararken ...

   Sevgiliye Ozlemler
   modern hayattan 
   kaçislar ve.............

         derin huzur......    G'r'N'm-O
          ( dont translate-it's Turkish)

  - 4-   fire dance on the beach
  The valley was not popular in Türkiye for a long time. Only the ones interested in the nature and freedom, the defeated warriors of the modern life and the back packers knew the place. With the help of contemporary communication aids (that’s what’s going on right know!!!!!!!!) the valley started to be visited by more and more people.The change in the types of the visitors can be observed in recent years ,but it doesn’t matter whoever comes to valley….The mother earth and the warriors of the modern life will always be there…The spirit of the mother earth, fire, sea and stars will save the valley.. It will always be seen the silhouette of the Dosmina while she was waiting for her lover captain at the beach, at nights….. 
     You can spend your day by reading and listening music,cooling yourself by swimming and diving from the rocks… You can trek around and see the waterfall and see the butterflies over there( never look around for them and never disturb them,  you’ll see them in a way….) 
There is no electricity and no technology which is the most attractive feature of the valley.Only  generator is used in the certain hours. The food is brought from Ölüdeniz daily..There is no special distrubituion for newspapers..Yu can ask for someone who goes to Ölüdeniz. And the most important of it all; you must bring extra alcohol and special ones to dr?nk for yourself if you like drinking very much…

  -5- Diving… yihuuuuuuuuu…
