Information About \u00c7avu\u015fin Village<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

\u00c7avu\u015fin Village, known to have been home to Christian dervishes in ancient times, is also an important region that has survived from the Roman period to the present day. It is noticed that many rocks have been carved in the region, which literally hosts history. These rocks were carved by the dervishes living at that time to escape and protect themselves from the Romans. In addition, since the soil in the region was infertile, the need for shelter was met in small houses built right next to the rock cavities. Recently, many hotels and accommodation places have been built in \u00c7avu\u015fin village and are developing rapidly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
